iavf_free_arq_bufs(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💖 NAME 💖

iavf_free_arq_bufs — the one that frees the receive queue buffer info elements ✨

Like, okay, bestie, this is the cleanup girlie. She frees receive queue buffer info elements. That's her whole job. Periodt. 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void iavf_free_arq_bufs (struct iavf_hw *hw );

That's it. That's the whole function signature. One argument, void return, no drama, no returning values, she just does the thing and dips. 🎀

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • hw — pointer to the hardware structure 🫶 literally just a pointer to your iavf_hw struct, that's the whole vibe. Hand her the hardware and she'll take it from there.

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

Okay so this function does not exist in a vacuum, she's part of a whole friend group, and if you're reading this page you probably want the rest of the squad too. The kernel file this lives in is:

./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/iavf/iavf_adminq.c

And now the full roster, no cap, every single one, because we do not gatekeep here 💜:

Notice how iavf_free_asq_bufs(9) is right there being the send-side sibling while iavf_free_arq_bufs(9) handles the receive side? Yeah. Matching set. Iconic. 💅

💡 tiny reminder bestie: this is a man page about a free function — it gives memory back. Don't go calling it on stuff that already got freed and then act surprised. 🙈

And that's the page, fr fr 💖 — iavf_free_arq_bufs(9) lives in the kernel API manual, shipped out of ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/iavf, dated October 2026. Go free those receive queue buffer info elements, you absolute main character, and I'll see you in the next page 🧚✨🎀
