πŸ¦‹ NAME

ice_clean_tx_irq β€” reclaim resources after transmit completes. that's it. that's the whole job. it cleans up after your packets have gone off into the world 🌈


✨ SYNOPSIS

bool ice_clean_tx_irq (struct ice_tx_ring *tx_ring , int napi_budget );

look at her. returns a bool, takes two args, zero drama πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS

  • tx_ring β€” the Tx ring to clean. this is the ring we're tidying up after, main character of the cleanup arc πŸ‘‘
  • napi_budget β€” used to determine if we are in netpoll. that's literally its whole purpose bestie, don't overthink it 🫢
