iavf_rx_csum(9)
π NAME π
iavf_rx_csum β okay so this is the little function that tells the skb whether the hardware said the checksum is good β¨
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
void iavf_rx_csum (const struct iavf_vsi *vsi , struct sk_buff *skb ,
struct libeth_rx_pt decoded_pt , struct libeth_rx_csum csum_bits );
No cap, that's the whole signature β five lines of vibe, zero return value (void, she gives nothing back, she just does π
).
πΈ ARGUMENTS πΈ
vsiβ the VSI we care about π like, our VSI, the one we're invested inskbβ the skb that's currently being received and modified, main character energy fr frdecoded_ptβ decoded ptype information, iykyk πcsum_bitsβ decoded Rx descriptor information, the receipts basically π§

And the source file itself lives at ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/iavf/iavf_txrx.c β go read it, she ate π
Also: the kernel file pointer in the original manpage is literally Kernel file ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/iavf/iavf_txrx.c β that's where the whole thing is defined, bestie π«Ά
β¨π and that's the page!! πβ¨
This absolute icon of a manpage is from the Kernel API Manual, sourced from ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/iavf, dated October 2026, and it answers to the name iavf_rx_csum(9). Go off, king ππΈ
