💅 i40e_del_fdir_entry(9) — Kernel API Manual, bestie edition 🎀

okay so picture this: you're in i40e_del_fdir_entry(9), which lives in the Kernel API Manual, and this function is here to yeet a Flow Director filter entry out of existence. That's the whole vibe. Let's get into it ✨

✨ NAME ✨

i40e_del_fdir_entry — Deletes a Flow Director filter entry. gone. deleted. no cap 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int i40e_del_fdir_entry (struct i40e_vsi *vsi , struct ethtool_rxnfc
*cmd );

so it takes two things and hands you back an int. that's it, that's the tea 🫶

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • vsi — Pointer to the targeted VSI. like, which VSI are we talking about, bestie? this one. 🎯
  • cmd — The command to get or set Rx flow classification rules. it's the ethtool rxnfc command struct doing its little job ✨

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

The function removes a Flow Director filter entry from the hlist of the corresponding PF. so the filter? not on the list anymore. that's literally the whole plot 😭

Returns 0 on success. iconic behavior, honestly 👑
