i40e_write_rx_ctl(9)
π i40e_write_rx_ctl β write to an Rx control register
Okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual. This page is i40e_write_rx_ctl(9) β yeah that (9) is the manual section, it's giving kernel-internals realness. Sit down, hydrate, and let's get into it π«Ά
β¨ NAME β¨
i40e_write_rx_ctl β literally just writes to an Rx control register. That's the whole vibe. No cap π
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
void i40e_write_rx_ctl (struct i40e_hw *hw , u32 reg_addr , u32 reg_val );
She's void, she takes three args, she does the thing. Iconic behaviour only β¨
πΈ ARGUMENTS πΈ
hwβ pointer to thehwstruct. Your whole hardware situation lives in there, so pls don't hand her a NULL, that's not the moment πreg_addrβ the register address. It's au32, it's where you're writing to. Know it, love it, pass it correctly πreg_valβ the register value. Also au32. This is the actual thing getting written, the main character of the whole operation π

Like, that's a whole friend group of functions right there. If you're about to poke at Rx control registers you should probably at least say hi to i40e_read_rx_ctl(9) too, iykyk π₯
