i40e_control_wait_rx_q(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 NAME 💅

i40e_control_wait_rx_q — okay so bestie, that's literally the whole name section. The original page leaves the one-liner description blank, so no tea there, no cap. Just the name, standing there, looking iconic for no reason. ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int i40e_control_wait_rx_q (struct i40e_pf *pf , int pf_q , bool enable
);

That's the whole vibe. Returns an int, takes three things, does the thing. 🫶

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • pf — the PF structure. yes queen, the big one. 💖
  • pf_q — the queue being configured, i.e. the specific little ring we're messing with. 🎯
  • enable — start or stop the rings. that's it, that's the toggle, true/false energy. 🔥

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So what does this function actually do? It enables or disables one single queue, and the slay part is that it also waits for the change to finish. not just "sent it and hoped for the best" — it actually sits there and waits. main character behavior, honestly. 👑

Lowkey the important caveat: if you're disabling queues, the caller of this function is the one who has to handle the delays needed. That responsibility is not on this function. it's giving "you handle the timing, babe, I'll handle the queue." 😭 Don't forget that part, fr fr.

🌸 SEE ALSO 🌸

First up, the kernel file this all lives in:

  • ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_main.c

And now… the entire friend group. no gatekeeping, every single one of them, in the order the original page listed them. 💜 take a breath, hydrate, and scroll:

okay that's the whole page, you made it, I'm so proud of you 🥹 This cutie lives in the kernel source under ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e, the page is dated October 2026, and yes, the header is still i40e_control_wait_rx_q(9) — because some things never change, and honestly? iconic. 💖✨🎀
