iavf_add_ether_addrs(9)

Okay bestie, this is iavf_add_ether_addrs(9) from the Kernel API Manual — a tiny little networking page with very specific errand energy. Short, sweet, and honestly? Kinda iconic. 💖

✨ NAME ✨

iavf_add_ether_addrs — and that's it. The dash is literally followed by nothing, so the name is just the function name, bestie. No cap, no extra summary. 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int iavf_add_ether_addrs (struct iavf_adapter *adapter );

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• adapter — the adapter structure. That's the whole argument, bestie. One struct, no side quests.

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

Request that the PF add one or more addresses to our filters. That's the entire vibe: we're asking the PF to do the address-adding thing, and this function is the messenger. ✨

⭐ RETURN ⭐

Returns 0 on success, and a negative value on failure. Slay when it's 0, sad little negative number when it's not. 😭
