i40e_write_profile(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💖 i40e_write_profile(9) 💖

okay bestie, so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual — yes, the fancy kernel one — and it's about exactly one function: i40e_write_profile. Buckle up, it's short but it's mighty. 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

i40e_write_profile — and that's it. Literally nothing after the dash. The description field is serving empty-box energy and honestly? Iconic. 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int i40e_write_profile (struct i40e_hw *hw , struct i40e_profile_segment
*profile , u32 track_id );

💅 ARGUMENTS 💅

Three args, three vibes:

  • hw — pointer to the hardware structure 🫶
  • profile — pointer to the profile segment of the package to be downloaded
  • track_id — package tracking id

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

Handles the download of a complete package.

That's the whole thing. No cap — that's the entire description. It does one job and it does it. 👑

🧚 SEE ALSO 🧚

And now, the main character moment: the entire friend group. 💜

First up, the kernel file itself:

  • Kernel file ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_common.c

Then every single one of these absolute legends (and yes, we're listing all of them, because we don't do "etc." in this house):

Like, that's the whole extended universe right there. 🌈

lowkey a note from me to you: this page really is this short. No hidden options, no environment variables, no exit statuses, no warnings, no bugs section — nothing. The function does the package download thing and the manpage says so. Don't go looking for lore that isn't there, bestie. 💀

mwah 💋 — this little masterpiece lives in ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e and it's dated October 2026. Screenshot it, frame it, put it on the fridge. 🫶✨
