iavf_set_rss_key(9)

💅 iavf_set_rss_key — Kernel API Manual, bestie edition ✨

okay so real talk, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual about one (1) tiny function called iavf_set_rss_key, and it is so short it's basically a story post. but we're gonna give it the full main-character treatment anyway 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

iavf_set_rss_key —

and that's it. that's the whole description. the original literally leaves the dash hanging there like a text with no follow-up 😭 no cap, it's giving "sent from my iPhone". so like… the name is the name, and the rest of the page is where the lore lives 🦋

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void iavf_set_rss_key (struct iavf_adapter *adapter );

she takes exactly one thing and returns literally nothing (void, iconic, unbothered, no notes) 💅

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• adapter — the adapter structure. that's the whole vibe. you hand her the adapter, she does her thing 🫶

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so here's the whole plot: this function requests that the PF set our RSS hash key. that's it. that's the tea ☕ one request, sent off to the PF, and we move on with our lives ✨

no return value, no drama, no error code to check. she simply asks and dips 🌈
