ice_clear_feature_support(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

🧊 ice_clear_feature_support — bestie, let's talk

okay so you found yourself a page from the Kernel API Manual and the vibe is... a little mysterious 💅 the title is ice_clear_feature_support(9) and the NAME section is, and I cannot stress this enough, literally just the name and a lonely little dash. No description. Nothing. It's giving "left on read" 😭 so we work with what we've got, and what we've got is a function that clears a feature flag. That's the whole tea. 🫖

✨ NAME ✨

ice_clear_feature_support — and then… a dash, followed by absolutely nothing 🎀 no cap, the description slot is empty in the original, so I'm not gonna invent lore for you. The name does exactly what it says on the tin though: it clears feature support. Simple. Iconic. Understood. 🌸

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

here's the signature, character for character, because I would never mess with your code:

void ice_clear_feature_support (struct ice_pf *pf , enum ice_feature f
);

so it returns void — nothing comes back, no little gift, no exit code, just vibes and the side effect 💫

🌈 ARGUMENTS 🌈

two arguments, both main characters, let's give them their moment:

  • pf — pointer to the struct ice_pf instance 🧊 this is the physical function you're working on, and yes she's a pointer, so please be normal about it.
  • f — the feature enum to clear 🌟 that's the enum ice_feature value you want un-supported. You hand it over, it gets cleared. Periodt.

🫶 SEE ALSO 🫶

okay this section is long, and honestly? obsessed. The kernel file lives right here:

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

and then the friend group — every single one of these, no skips, no "and others", because I'm not about to do them dirty like that 💖

like I said. full friend group. iykyk 💀

quick reminder bestie: ice_clear_feature_support is the clearing one — if you clocked ice_set_feature_support(9) and ice_init_feature_support(9) in that list above, then yeah, you already clocked the whole feature-support trio. go read those too, they're right there. 🙈

and that's the page!! from ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice 🧊, dated October 2026 — mwah, ty for reading, slay, and remember: the NAME section being empty is a choice and we respect it 🎀✨👑
