🌸 i40e_vc_con...ous_mode_msg(9)

okay so bestie, we're in the Kernel API Manual today (yes the title got truncated at the top of the page, it's giving mysterious main character energy, the full function name lives in NAME below 💅). Anyway. This is the page for the VF promiscuous-mode config message. Buckle up 🎀

---

✨ NAME

i40e_vc_config_promiscuous_mode_msg — the function that handles the VF asking to set up promiscuous mode on the VF vsis 🦋

---

🧚 SYNOPSIS

int i40e_vc_config_promiscuous_mode_msg (struct i40e_vf *vf , u8 *msg );

---

💜 ARGUMENTS

• vf — pointer to the VF info 👑
• msg — pointer to the msg buffer ✨

---

🔥 DESCRIPTION

so this one gets called from the VF when it wants to configure the promiscuous mode of its VF vsis. That's the whole vibe, no cap 🌈

ngl bestie that's a whole group chat of references and every single one of them made the list 💖 no gatekeeping here.

okay that's the page!! it came from ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e, dated October 2026, and the footer still says i40e_vc_con...ous_mode_msg(9) because the truncation is iconic and we respect it 💅✨🫶
