🧚 ice_arfs_is_flow_expired(9) 🧚

okay so this is the kernel API manual page for ice_arfs_is_flow_expired(9), and it's giving “tiny but important helper” energy. bestie, we're checking whether an aRFS entry has expired. that's the whole assignment. 💅

✨ NAME ✨

ice_arfs_is_flow_expired — check if the aRFS entry has expired. literally that. no cap.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

bool ice_arfs_is_flow_expired (struct ice_vsi *vsi , struct
ice_arfs_entry *arfs_entry );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• vsi — the VSI containing the aRFS entry. she's the container, okay?
• arfs_entry — the aRFS entry that's being checked for expiration. this is the one getting the vibe check. 👀

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Return true if the flow has expired, else false. that's the whole tea. ☕

This function should be used to determine whether or not an aRFS entry should be removed from the hardware and software structures. so like, it's the “should this entry get kicked out?” check. not me being dramatic, that's literally the job. 🫶
