iavf_set_vla...oad_features(9)

💖 iavf_set_vlan_offload_features 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual (section 9, the function-y one) — this page is literally all about iavf_set_vlan_offload_features, and it's giving "small helper, big responsibilities" energy fr fr.

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

iavf_set_vlan_offload_features — set VLAN offload configuration 🎀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void iavf_set_vlan_offload_features (struct iavf_adapter *adapter ,
netdev_features_t prev_features , netdev_features_t features );

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• adapter — the board private structure 💅 like, the adapter's own little private stash of stuff.
• prev_features — the previous features, used for comparison 👀 (yes, it's the "before" picture).
• features — the updated features, used for configuration ✨ (the "after" picture, and the one that actually drives the setup).

---

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

So here's the vibe: this function sets the aq_required bit(s) based on the requested features you pass in, and it uses those to configure VLAN stripping and/or VLAN insertion if supported 👑. If the hardware doesn't support it, it's simply not supported — no cap.

It also schedules the watchdog if any changes are requested, so the request gets expedited via virtchnl 🚀. Like, no sitting around, the watchdog is on it.

ngl the whole point is: features come in, bits get set, watchdog gets scheduled, and virtchnl hears about it ASAP 😭💀
