💅 i40e_xdp_ring_update_tail — a Kernel API Manual moment ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the i40e_xdp_ring_update_tail(9) page, straight out of the Kernel API Manual 🎀. It's short, it's sweet, it's giving "one job and she does it" energy. Let's get into it 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

i40e_xdp_ring_update_tail — updates the XDP Tx ring tail register 💫

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void i40e_xdp_ring_update_tail (struct i40e_ring *xdp_ring );

like, that's the whole signature. no notes. iconic 👑

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • xdp_ring — the XDP Tx ring. that's it, that's the whole argument 🍓

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

This function updates the XDP Tx ring tail register. periodt. 💅

no cap, that is genuinely what the page says — she's a one-liner and she knows it. the way that a function can just do one thing and not overexplain itself? main character energy fr fr 🌈

lowkey do not go reading extra behaviour into this — the page says "updates the tail register" and that's the whole vibe check. anything more is you making stuff up, and we don't do that here 🙈

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

the kernel file lives at ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_txrx.c — go say hi to her 🧚

and then there's the friend group. literally the whole i40e extended universe, in order:

like… that's a lot of siblings, and every single one made the list. we don't skip. we don't summarise. we list all sixty-seven of them because that's what the page does 💀💖

okay that's the whole page, bestie, hope the vibe check passed 🌸 this cutie came from ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e, dated October 2026, in the Kernel API Manual — mwah, slay, go read the source 🎀🦋💜
