💅 iavf_free_adminq_arq(9) 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual 🎀 — this one is called iavf_free_adminq_arq, and it's literally the glow-up cleanup era for the Admin Queue receive rings. sit down, hydrate, let's go ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

iavf_free_adminq_arq — free Admin Queue receive rings 🧹💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void iavf_free_adminq_arq (struct iavf_hw *hw );

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• hw — pointer to the hardware structure 🫶 like, this is the main character of the whole function, no cap

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so this function frees the Admin Queue receive rings, periodt. but bestie listen 👀 — it assumes the posted receive buffers have already been cleaned and de-allocated first. so like, do your chores before you show up, okay? 😭 this is not the vibe where you skip steps, fr fr.

💀 reminder, gently: the posted receive buffers must already be cleaned and de-allocated before you call this. that's the whole premise. don't come for the rings before the buffers are handled 🙈
