ice_change_proto_id_to_dvm(9)

💖 NAME 💖

ice_change_proto_id_to_dvm — change proto id in prot_id_tbl

This is ice_change_proto_id_to_dvm(9), and we are literally in the Kernel API Manual right now, bestie. The whole vibe of this one? Change proto id in prot_id_tbl. That’s the name, that’s the mission. 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void ice_change_proto_id_to_dvm (void );

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• void — no arguments. Not a single one. Zero. Zilch. The function is out here with no parameters, main character energy only. 😌

---

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

Okay so here’s the tea, no cap: the protocol id for the outer vlan is different in dvm and svm. If dvm is supported, the protocol array record for the outer vlan has to be modified to reflect the value proper for DVM. That’s it — that record has to get the value that’s correct for DVM, periodt. 💖

tl;dr: dvm and svm have different protocol ids for the outer vlan, and when dvm is supported, the protocol array record for the outer vlan needs that DVM-appropriate value. 🫶
