ib_modify_mad(9)

💅 NAME 💅

ib_modify_mad — bestie, this one modifies an outstanding send MAD operation ✨

Okay so real quick vibe check: this is a page from the Kernel API Manual (section 9), and it's short, sweet, and honestly kind of a bop 🎀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int ib_modify_mad (struct ib_mad_send_buf *send_buf , u32 timeout_ms );

That's literally the whole thing. Two args, one int back. Clean, iconic, no notes 💅

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• send_buf — this is your main character ptr 🫶 It indicates the MAD to modify — like, which MAD are we touching? This one. Right here.
• timeout_ms — the new timeout value for the sent MAD ⏰ A fresh u32, freshly picked, just for you.

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So what does this call actually do, you ask? It resets the timeout value for a sent MAD to the specified value. That's it. That's the whole serve 🍓

Think of it like sliding into your MAD's DMs and being like "hey bestie, new deadline, we're doing timeout_ms now" and it just… agrees. No cap, that's the whole function. Obsessed with the simplicity honestly 👑

Not me looking for extra lore — there isn't any here. The page is short and that's on purpose 🌈
