π iavf_add_rx_frag π
okay so you've stumbled into the Kernel API Manual page for iavf_add_rx_frag, and honestly? you're in the right place bestie π«Ά this one is short and sweet and it slaps.
β¨ NAME β¨
iavf_add_rx_frag β literally just "Add contents of Rx buffer to sk_buff". that's the whole vibe. π
π SYNOPSIS π
void iavf_add_rx_frag (struct sk_buff *skb , const struct libeth_fqe
*rx_buffer , unsigned int size );
so it takes three things and returns nothing, void, no thoughts head empty, it just does the thing β¨
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
skbβ thesk_buffyou're placing the data into. it's the container, the lil basket, the main character π§Ίrx_bufferβ the buffer containing the page to add. this is where the actual goods live πsizeβ the packet length, straight fromrx_desc. yes, from the descriptor, keep up π
πΈ DESCRIPTION πΈ
okay so picture this: this function adds the data contained in rx_buffer->page to the skb. and it doesn't do anything fancy with it β it will just attach the page as a frag to the skb. no copying, no drama, just vibes and a pointer π
then, because it's a considerate icon, the function will then update the page offset. that's it. that's the whole function. ate and left no crumbs π
