iavf_irq_disable(9)

💅 iavf_irq_disable — from the Kernel API Manual ✨

Okay bestie, welcome to the iavf_irq_disable(9) page, straight out of the Kernel API Manual. This one's a shortie but a goodie — it's giving "quiet down, we're doing Important Stuff" energy and honestly? Iconic. 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

iavf_irq_disable — mask off interrupt generation on the NIC. That's it, that's the whole vibe. The NIC goes quiet, nobody's interrupting anybody, peace is restored. 🦋

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void iavf_irq_disable (struct iavf_adapter *adapter );

Notice the void — no return value, no drama, ASMR-level calm. She simply does the thing and dips. 🫶

---

🧚 ARGUMENTS 🧚

• adapter — the board's private structure. Belt her in, hand her over, let her do her mask-off era. 💖

The main character lives right here in the kernel tree:

Kernel file ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/iavf/iavf_main.c

Like, that is a whole social circle. iavf_irq_enable(9) and iavf_irq_disable(9) are literally the two halves of the same friendship bracelet — one quiets the NIC, one wakes it back up. Balance. 🌈

Lowkey a reminder: this page is just the "what is it and who's in it" summary. The actual masking-off behaviour is a mask-off interrupt thing on the NIC — don't go reading extra plot into it that isn't here. 🙈

And that's the whole page, bestie, you ate it up. 🍓 This little cutie came from ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/iavf, dated October 2026 — the iavf_irq_disable(9) manual page, signed, sealed, and slayed. 💜👑
