iavf_set_mac_addr_type(9)

✨ iavf_set_mac_addr_type(9) ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual 💖 you're literally reading iavf_set_mac_addr_type(9) rn and honestly? it's a tiny little legend. the whole job is so small but so important — it sets the correct request type from the filter type. that's it. that's the gig. no cap. 👑

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void iavf_set_mac_addr_type (struct virtchnl_ether_addr
*virtchnl_ether_addr , const struct iavf_mac_filter *filter );

like, it returns void — it gives nothing back because it's not about the reward, it's about the work 💅 and it takes two pointers, which we are about to unpack together, bestie. 🫶

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• virtchnl_ether_addr — pointer to the requested list element 🎀 that's the destination vibe. it's a struct virtchnl_ether_addr * and it's the thing getting its type set, iykyk.
• filter — pointer to the requested filter ✨ specifically a const struct iavf_mac_filter *, so like… read-only. hands off. she's not to be modified, she's just here to inform. 🙈

💀 reminder bestie: this whole page is one function with two pointer arguments and a void return. don't overthink her. she's just setting a type. but she's doing it flawlessly. periodt.

and that's the whole page, diva 🎀 sourced straight from ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/iavf, dated October 2026, filed under the manual name iavf_set_mac_addr_type(9) — go forth and set those types, bestie, you're gonna slay 💜🧚⭐
