💖 ice_conv_li..._to_virtchnl(9) 💖

okay bestie, you're in the Kernel API Manual and this whole page is about ice_conv_link_speed_to_virtchnl. it's giving kernel networking, no cap. ✨

🎀 NAME 🎀

• ice_conv_link_speed_to_virtchnl - — bestie, that's the NAME line, and the part after the dash is empty in the original, so no invented summary. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

the signature, verbatim bestie:

u32 ice_conv_link_speed_to_virtchnl (bool adv_link_support , u16
       link_speed );

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• adv_link_support — determines the format of the returned link speed. 💅
• link_speed — variable containing the link_speed to be converted. 🎀

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so ice_conv_link_speed_to_virtchnl converts link speed supported by HW to link speed supported by virtchnl. literally its whole job. ✨

if adv_link_support is true, then return link speed in Mbps. if it's false, return link speed as a VIRTCHNL_LINK_SPEED_* casted to a u32. 👑

caveat bestie: when adv_link_support is false, the caller needs to cast back to an enum virtchnl_link_speed. when adv_link_support is true, the caller can expect the speed in Mbps. no guessing, that's the contract. 💖
