iavf_del_cloud_filter(9)
π iavf_del_cloud_filter β the Kernel API Manual girlies know π
okay so bestie, welcome to the iavf_del_cloud_filter(9) page β¨ it lives in the Kernel API Manual, and it's one of those tiny-but-iconic ones. no preamble, no fluff, just vibes and a function signature. let's get into it π
β¨ NAME β¨
iavf_del_cloud_filter β and that's it, that's the whole name section π
not me reading the original and finding the description after the dash is literally empty. it's giving "she left the group chat on read". no one-liner here, bestie β the NAME section is just the name. periodt π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
void iavf_del_cloud_filter (struct iavf_adapter *adapter );
that's the whole thing. void return, one argument, very demure, very mindful π«Ά (and yes, keep that space before the closing paren exactly as written β she's built like that π
)
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
adapterβ the adapter structure π that's it, that's the whole description. your one job is to show up with the adapter struct and she'll take it from there.
π₯ DESCRIPTION π₯
okay so here's the tea β what this function does is request that the PF delete cloud filters as specified by the user via tc tool.
let me say that again for the people in the back π£ she requests it β the PF is the one actually doing the deleting. you're just the messenger girlie, handing the note over to the physical function and letting it handle the cloud filter removal that the user set up through the tc tool.
the way that this is a "please delete these" ask and not a "I deleted these myself" flex π main character energy on the PF's side, honestly.
lowkey important vibe check: it's a request β¨ don't assume the filters are gone the millisecond this returns β the original says request, and we're not out here inventing behaviour π iykyk

okay this is the part where she goes absolutely unhinged with the cross-references, and honestly? obsessed π first up, the file this all lives in:
Kernel file ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/iavf/iavf_virtchnl.c
and then the entire extended friend group π get comfy, this is a long one:

fr fr that's fifty-nine cross-references, she said "you WILL know the whole virtchnl family" and honestly? respect π
also peep her sibling iavf_add_cloud_filter(9) and the gossip reporter iavf_print_cloud_filter(9) in there β the del/add duo ate π₯
and that's the whole page, babe πΈ no bugs section, no exit statuses, no environment variables β she's short and she knows it. anyway, this icon is brought to you by the source/version ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/iavf, dated October 2026 β¨ mwah, go delete some cloud filters responsibly πππ¦
