ib_set_rmpp_flags(9)

💅 ib_set_rmpp_flags(9) — from the Kernel API Manual, bestie 💖

okay so real talk, this little function lives in the Kernel API Manual and it's genuinely one of those tiny-but-iconic moments in the RDMA world. nobody's writing a fan account for it, but she does her one job flawlessly and honestly? we stan a focused queen. 👑

✨ NAME ✨

ib_set_rmpp_flags — sets the flags in an RMPP header. that's it. that's the whole vibe. no cap, she's a one-line legend. 🎀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void ib_set_rmpp_flags (struct ib_rmpp_hdr *rmpp_hdr , u8 flags );

look at that signature. clean. immaculate. the way she takes exactly two things and returns void because she doesn't need to give you anything back — she's already done. main character energy fr fr. 💅

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• rmpp_hdr — an RMPP header. that's the thing you're poking at, bestie. it's a struct ib_rmpp_hdr *, so it's pointing right at her. 🫶
• flags — the flags to set. a u8, so like, eight whole bits of flag-carrying potential. you hand them over, she puts them in. no extra steps, no drama. ✨
