iavf_free_virt_mem(9)

🎀 iavf_free_virt_mem 🎀

okay so real talk — you're in the Kernel API Manual, iavf_free_virt_mem(9) is the whole vibe of this page, and honestly? she's a tiny little helper. a little legend. let's get into it 💅

---

✨ NAME ✨

iavf_free_virt_mem — the virt memory free wrapper. that's it. that's her job. no cap 🫶

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void iavf_free_virt_mem (struct iavf_hw *hw , struct iavf_virt_mem *mem
);

like. look at that signature. it returns nothing (void), it takes two pointers, and it is going to free a thing. main character energy honestly 🔥

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• hw — a pointer to the HW structure. yes bestie, the hardware struct, hand it over 💖
• mem — ptr to the mem struct to free. this is the one getting yeeted. bye babe 👋

---

💜 SEE ALSO 💜

okay so this is the part where the page goes absolutely feral and name-drops basically the entire iavf family tree. EVERYONE is here. it's giving family reunion 😭

and that's the page, bestie!! tiny function, massive friend group. slay 💅✨

this cutie lives under ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/iavf, dated October 2026, and yes — it's still iavf_free_virt_mem(9) in the Kernel API Manual. okay bye, love you, free your virt mem responsibly 🎀💖🦋
