📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 ice_add_prof_id_vsig(9) — from the Kernel API Manual, bestie ✨

okay so picture this: it's a kernel manual page, the manual is literally called the Kernel API Manual, and this one function is out here doing one (1) very specific thing. let's get into it 🫶

💖 NAME 💖

ice_add_prof_id_vsig — add profile to VSIG. that's it. that's the whole job. and it ate. 👑

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int ice_add_prof_id_vsig (struct ice_hw *hw , enum ice_block blk , u16
vsig , u64 hdl , bool rev , struct list_head *chg );

like, look at that signature. it's giving "i have six arguments and i know how to use them" 💀

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • hw — pointer to the HW struct. so like, the hardware. the actual vibes of the silicon. 💻
  • blk — the hardware block. which block bestie. WHICH one. (enum ice_block, if we're being precise ✨)
  • vsig — the VSIG to which this profile is to be added. it's a u16, it's the destination, it's the main character of this paragraph 🎀
  • hdl — the profile handle indicating the profile to add. a u64. it's pointing at the profile like "that one. her. 👉"
  • rev — true to add entries to the end of the list. yes that's what rev means here, no i will not be taking questions 🙈
  • chg — the change list. a struct list_head *. the receipts. keep them. 💅

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

the kernel file this lives in, no cap:

  • ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_flex_pipe.c

and then. okay. and then the entire friend group showed up. literally the whole group chat rendered as function names, i am obsessed 😭✨

ngl if you read that entire list out loud you unlock a secret achievement. i don't make the rules 🧚‍♀️

that's the whole page, bestie. ily, go add those profiles to that VSIG responsibly 💜
