💖 ice_check_sriov_allowed(9) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the ice_check_sriov_allowed man page from the Kernel API Manual — yes it's giving kernel-doc energy but make it cute 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

ice_check_sriov_allowed — literally checks whether SR-IOV is allowed, based on a bunch of different checks 👑

like… is SR-IOV gonna happen or not? this function is the vibe check for that 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int ice_check_sriov_allowed (struct ice_pf *pf );

no cap, that's the whole signature 🫶

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• pf — the PF you wanna enable SR-IOV on 💖 (PF = physical function, iykyk)

lowkey the whole VF lifecycle lives in that list — freeing, enabling, mappings, resets, MACs, trust, link state, bandwidth, stats, VLANs, MDD events, MSI state… it's giving everything 🧚‍♀️
