ice_devlink_register(9)

✨ NAME ✨

okay so bestie, this is ice_devlink_register(9) from the Kernel API Manual, and its whole NAME vibe is literally: register devlink interface for this PF. That's the mission, that's the tweet, we move. 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void ice_devlink_register (struct ice_pf *pf );

No cap, that's the signature exactly as the page gives it. 🫶

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• pf — the PF to register the devlink for. That's the whole argument list, bestie; just this one pointer and we're out. ✨

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

This function registers the devlink instance associated with this physical function. Periodt. It's giving "one job, and it does it," and I'm obsessed. 💖

---

💜 RETURN 💜

zero on success or an error code on failure. Yep — that's exactly what the page says. So: success = zero, failure = an error code. No secret menu, no extra lore. 🌈

tiny vibe check: the SYNOPSIS says void, and the RETURN section still says zero or an error code. I'm keeping both exactly as the page states — no editing the lore. 🙈
