iavf_set_vc...ad_ethertype(9)

💅 iavf_set_vc_offload_ethertype — like, the Kernel API Manual page, bestie ✨

okay so this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual, and it's all about iavf_set_vc_offload_ethertype — yes the title got chopped in the header as iavf_set_vc...ad_ethertype(9) but we know her full name and we're gonna say it with our whole chest 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

iavf_set_vc_offload_ethertype — sets the virtchnl ethertype for an offload message 💅 that's the whole gig, no cap

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int iavf_set_vc_offload_ethertype (struct iavf_adapter *adapter , struct
virtchnl_vlan_setting *msg , u16 tpid , enum virtchnl_ops offload_op );

literally just four things going in, an int coming out, main character energy all around 🔥

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• adapter — the adapter structure 🎀 she's the whole vibe, everything hangs off her
• msg — the message structure that's used for updating offloads over virtchnl, i.e. the one you're updating ✨
• tpid — the VLAN TPID (like 0x8100, 0x88a8, etc.) 👑 yes those are the exact vibes, keep them
• offload_op — the opcode used to figure out which support structure to check 🕵️‍♀️ iykyk
