✨ i40e_notify_client_of_vf_msg 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual 🎀 — this one's a little function from the i40e driver family, and honestly? it's giving messenger girl energy. her whole job is passing a message along. no cap. 🦋

🌸 NAME 🌸

i40e_notify_client_of_vf_msg — call the client vf message callback 💖

like, that's literally it. she notifies the client. about a vf message. iconic behavior honestly.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

*msg , u16 len );

she's a void function btw — no return value, no drama, she just does the thing and dips. 🫶

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • vsi — the VSI with the message 🌈 (yes, the VSI. she's the main character here.)

  • msg — message buffer 🍓
  • len — length of the message 📏

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

okay so here's the whole vibe: if there is a client to this VSI, call the client. that's it. that's the function. 💅

literally the entire description. short queen. she said "if there's a client, call 'em" and clocked out. periodt. ✨
