ice_aq_set_rss_key(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 ice_aq_set_rss_key — the manual page, but make it cute

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual (that's the manual name, iykyk) and honestly? it's a little one, but she's important. let's get into it 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

ice_aq_set_rss_key — literally, that's the whole name section, bestie. no witty tagline, no subtitle, just vibes and a function name. iconic behaviour honestly ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int ice_aq_set_rss_key (struct ice_hw *hw , u16 vsi_handle , struct
       ice_aqc_get_set_rss_keys *keys );

she returns an int, she takes three things, and yes the line breaks in the middle of a struct declaration in the original and we're keeping it exactly like that. character for character. no cap 💀

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • hw — pointer to the HW struct. that's the hardware, bestie. the actual silicon vibes 🧚
  • vsi_handle — the software VSI handle. it's a u16, it's software, it's a handle. slay 💅
  • keys — pointer to key info struct. that's a struct ice_aqc_get_set_rss_keys * and it's where the key lives 🔑

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

set the RSS key per VSI.

that's it. that's the description. one line. she said "I'll be brief" and then actually was, which is honestly main character energy 👑

so like, for each VSI you're setting her RSS key. that's the whole bit. no further elaboration in the source page, so I'm not gonna invent any — we don't make things up in this group chat 🙈

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

okay this is the part where the page goes absolutely feral. the source lives here:

  • Kernel file ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_common.c

and then, bestie, the list. the whole list. every single one. I would never gatekeep:

like. she's connected. she knows everybody. the way she has more friends than the function has lines of description 😭💀 but we love a well-networked icon 🫶

friendly reminder bestie: this page is filed under ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice, dated October 2026, and it's part of the Kernel API Manual set. go read the neighbours, they're all listed above and they're all (9) sections. no gatekeeping here 💖

and that's the whole page!! she's short, she's sweet, she sets an RSS key per VSI, and she has an absolutely unhinged amount of SEE ALSO references 🦋⭐ mwah 💋
