i40e_free_misc_vector(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… i40e_free_misc_vector β€” like, the Kernel API Manual page, bestie ✨

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual (yes, that's the manual name, and yes it's giving "official business" πŸŽ€) for i40e_free_misc_vector(9), one little function out of the Intel i40e driver. It's tiny. It's cute. It does exactly one job and then leaves. Obsessed.


🌸 NAME 🌸

i40e_free_misc_vector β€” frees the vector that handles non-queue events πŸ’«

That's it. That's the whole personality. It frees the misc vector, and the misc vector is the one that handles the events that aren't queue stuff. Non-queue events. You get it. 🫢


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void i40e_free_misc_vector (struct i40e_pf *pf );

Returns void, so literally nothing comes back to you. It takes the board private structure and that's the whole conversation. πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • pf β€” the board private structure πŸ‘‘ (that's the struct i40e_pf * from up there, bestie, keep up)

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

first up, the actual code lives here, no cap:

  • ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_main.c β€” kernel file, that's the one πŸ“

and then... okay. not me about to list the ENTIRE friend group 😭 this driver knows everybody. here's the whole crew, in order, nobody left behind:

and if you're wondering whether your fave i40e_setup_misc_vector(9) is in there β€” bestie it literally is, they're a matching set πŸ’€ set up the misc vector, free the misc vector, cycle of life, slay πŸ¦‹

okay that's the whole page, no notes πŸ‘‘

this lil legend lives in ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e, dated October 2026 β€” that's the source/version and the date, mwah, thanks for coming to my TED talk πŸ’–βœ¨πŸŽ€
