iavf_add_adv_rss_cfg(9)

💅 iavf_add_adv_rss_cfg — from the Kernel API Manual, section 9 (yes, the (9) is part of the whole vibe)

okay so bestie, welcome to the little kernel page for iavf_add_adv_rss_cfg. It lives in the <pink>Kernel API Manual</pink>, section 9, and it is a whole entire function. Let's get into it ✨

---

🎀 NAME 🎀

iavf_add_adv_rss_cfg — and honestly? The description slot after the dash is literally empty in the original, no cap. Just the name, sitting there, serving main character energy with zero explanation. We love a mysterious icon 👑

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void iavf_add_adv_rss_cfg (struct iavf_adapter *adapter );

That's the whole signature, bestie. It returns void — so no return value, no "did it work?" report back, it just does the thing 🫶

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• adapter — the VF adapter structure 💖 this is the one and only thing you hand it, and it's a struct iavf_adapter *, so it's the VF's adapter struct that gets passed along, periodt.

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So here's what's happening: this function requests that the PF add RSS configuration as specified by the user via ethtool 🔥

Read that again, because it matters: it's a request to the PF, and the config it's asking for is the RSS config as specified by the user via ethtool. Not invented, not guessed — whatever the user set through ethtool is what gets requested. The VF asks, the PF handles it. iykyk 💅
