i40e_get_fw_lldp_status(9)

💖 i40e_get_fw_lldp_status — from the Kernel API Manual, section (9) 🎀

okay bestie, welcome to the glow-up of a lifetime — this is the i40e_get_fw_lldp_status man page and honestly? she's short, she's sweet, she's giving "tiny function, big main character energy" ✨

---

✨ NAME ✨

i40e_get_fw_lldp_status —

like… that's it. that's the whole name section. the description after the dash is literally blank. not me staring at an empty line like 👁️👄👁️ — but fr fr, that's what the page says, so that's what you get. no cap.

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int i40e_get_fw_lldp_status (struct i40e_hw *hw , enum
i40e_get_fw_lldp_status_resp *lldp_status );

yes the signature wraps onto two lines, that's just how she ate. 💅

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• hw — pointer to the hw struct. that's your hardware bestie, she's holding all the state.
• lldp_status — pointer to the status enum. this is where the answer gets dropped off, so keep an eye on her 👀

---

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so what does she do? she gets the status of the FW Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) Agent. that's the firmware's LLDP agent, in case the acronym maze had you spiraling 🌀

and how does she tell you the tea? the status of the agent gets reported straight back through the lldp_status parameter. one function, one pointer, one answer. literally iconic. periodt.

ngl the original page is very chill on details — no return-value list, no error codes, no env vars, nothing. i'm not gonna invent any either, because making stuff up is not the vibe 🙈 what you see above is the whole story bestie, fr fr.
