ice_ena_vsi_rdma_qset(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💖 ice_ena_vsi_rdma_qset — from the Kernel API Manual, bestie 💖

okay so picture this: you're deep in the kernel API manual (section 9, networking-adjacent, very much iykyk territory) and you meet ice_ena_vsi_rdma_qset. that's her. that's the whole name. the original NAME line literally gives you the function and then just... nothing else. no blurb. no tagline. she said "my work speaks for itself" and honestly? iconic. 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int ice_ena_vsi_rdma_qset (struct ice_port_info *pi , u16 vsi_handle ,
u8 tc , u16 *rdma_qset , u16 num_qsets , u32 *qset_teid );

like, look at her signature. six whole parameters. she's not doing a little casual call, she's doing the most. also yes the spaces before the commas are canon, do not @ me, copy it exactly 💅

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • pi — port information structure. your port's whole little identity card 🪪
  • vsi_handle — software VSI handle. it's a u16, it's the handle, it's lowkey how you find your VSI again later.
  • tc — TC number. a u8! tiny! adorable! still important.
  • rdma_qset — pointer to RDMA Qset. miss thing is a pointer, so, y'know, treat her with respect 🫶
  • num_qsets — number of RDMA Qsets. as in, plural. as in, count them.
  • qset_teid — pointer to Qset node TEIDs. another pointer. she's got layers ✨

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so what does she actually do, you ask? bestie. she adds an RDMA Qset. that's it. that's the whole vibe. short, sweet, no cap — the manpage gives you exactly one (1) sentence and we are not about to invent lore that isn't there 🙈

like yes, the setup around her is elaborate — a port info struct, a VSI handle, a TC number, a pointer to the qset, a count, a pointer to the TEIDs — but the actual stated job is literally "adds RDMA Qset." main character energy with a one-line bio. obsessed 💜

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

first up, the source her little heart lives in:

  • the kernel file ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_common.c

and then, bestie, the entire extended friend group. no skips, no cuts, everybody gets named 💖

and that's the whole page, bestie — no hidden lore, no surprise return values, no exit statuses, just a very specific little enabler function and her extremely long contact list 🌈

real talk though: if you ever need to know what she returns or what she does on failure, this page does not tell you. don't guess, go read the source. 💀

okay and finally, the cute sign-off bit: this page is filed under ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice and it's dated October 2026 — that's the source/version line and the date line, folded in with a bow 🎀 slay, go add your Qset. periodt. 👑
