iavf_set_ada...eed_from_vpe(9)
π iavf_set_ada...eed_from_vpe(9) β Kernel API Manual, but make it a vibe
okay bestie, so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's about one tiny helper function in the Intel iavf driver. She's short, she's sweet, she sets a link speed. Let's get into it β¨
πΈ NAME πΈ
iavf_set_adapter_link_speed_from_vpe β
and yeah, that's literally it π the original leaves the description blank, so we're leaving it blank too. Iconic behavior honestly. No cap, the manpage just says the name and dips. π
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
void iavf_set_adapter_link_speed_from_vpe (struct iavf_adapter *adapter
, struct virtchnl_pf_event *vpe );
that's the whole signature, copy-pasted exactly, don't come for me π«Ά
π ARGUMENTS π
adapterβ the adapter structure for which we are setting the link speed. like, this is the baby we're doing the whole thing for πvpeβ thevirtchnl_pf_eventstructure that contains the link speed we are setting. she's the messenger carrying the speed, okurr π
π DESCRIPTION π
so basically: this is a helper function for setting iavf_adapter link speed β¨ That's the whole description. She's a helper. She helps. She sets the link speed on the iavf_adapter. Main character energy for a function that's literally just assisting someone else, and honestly? we respect it π

like I said. a whole friend group π«
the cute sign-off π
this slay little page comes to you from ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/iavf, dated October 2026, and it's filed under iavf_set_ada...eed_from_vpe(9) in the Kernel API Manual. go set some link speeds, bestie, and remember: help others, stay a helper function, periodt πβ¨
