i40e_get_rx_ring_count(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… i40e_get_rx_ring_count β€” get RX ring count

okay so bestie, you found it β€” this is i40e_get_rx_ring_count, a page from the Kernel API Manual (section 9, kernel-adjacent, very demure, very mindful). It's a tiny lil function that just tells you how many RX rings you've got. That's the whole plot. But she's iconic for it πŸ’–


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

u32 i40e_get_rx_ring_count (struct net_device *netdev );

like… that's it. that's the entire signature. no cap. πŸŽ€


🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • netdev β€” the network interface device structure πŸ¦‹ (yes bestie, the net_device struct, the one you already have lying around, she's the main character here)

πŸ‘‘ RETURN πŸ‘‘

it hands you back the number of RX rings. that's the vibe. that's the whole return value. u32, numbers, slay. ✨


πŸ”₯ SEE ALSO πŸ”₯

okay so this is where the group chat gets long, because every single one of these is in the same kernel file:

Kernel file ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_ethtool.c β€” and the struct i40e_stats(9) lives there too 🫢

and now the whole squad, fr fr, in order:

like… that's the entire roster 😭 every single one accounted for, no one left on read πŸ’€


and that's the page bestie, go get your ring count πŸ¦‹

kisses from the./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e directory πŸ’œ β€” dated October 2026, filed under i40e_get_rx_ring_count(9), and yes she ate πŸ’…βœ¨
