iavf_set_coalesce(9)

💅 iavf_set_coalesce(9) — like, the Kernel API Manual obviously 🎀

okay bestie, buckle up, we're diving into the iavf_set_coalesce page from the Kernel API Manual and it's honestly iconic ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

iavf_set_coalesce — Set interrupt coalescing settings 💫 (yes, that's the whole vibe, and it eats)

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int iavf_set_coalesce (struct net_device *netdev , struct
       ethtool_coalesce *ec , struct kernel_ethtool_coalesce *kernel_coal ,
       struct netlink_ext_ack *extack );

like literally that's the whole signature, no cap 🫶

---

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• netdev — the network interface device structure, aka the main character of this whole function 🎀
• ec — the ethtool coalesce structure, hi bestie 👋
• kernel_coal — the ethtool CQE mode setting structure, lowkey important
• extack — extack for reporting error messages, so when things go sideways you get receipts 📝

---

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

So what does this thing do? It changes the current coalescing settings for every queue. Every single one. all of them. periodt 💅✨
