💅 i40e_sync_vsi_filters(9) — bestie edition

okay so this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual (that's the manual name, iykyk) and it's about one single function, i40e_sync_vsi_filters(9). it's a little one, but she's important. let's get into it 🫶

like, she takes the filter list and shoves it at the hardware. that's the whole vibe. 🦋

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

(intentionally shipped with that little space before the ); — we don't touch it, we respect it 💅)

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • vsi — ptr to the VSI. that's it. literally one argument. she's low maintenance. 💖

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

okay so what she actually does: she pushes any outstanding VSI filter changes through the AdminQ. that's the whole job. no cap. ✨

and then she tells you how it went — returns 0 or error value. so like, 0 = slay, anything else = not slay. check it, bestie. 🔥
