💅 ice_eswitch_disable_switchdev — Kernel API Manual

okay so bestie, welcome to the group chat for ice_eswitch_disable_switchdev ✨ this one lives in the Kernel API Manual and it's honestly giving "short and iconic" — like, three lines of lore and a whole friend group of SEE ALSOs. let's get into it 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

ice_eswitch_disable_switchdev — disable eswitch resources 💅

like. that's the whole job. it turns the eswitch resources off. no cap, that's it, that's the function.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void ice_eswitch_disable_switchdev (struct ice_pf *pf );

okay so quick vibe check on this signature: it returns void — meaning it does not hand you back a value, so don't @ it expecting an int, bestie, it's not gonna happen 🙈 — and it takes exactly one argument, a struct ice_pf * named pf.

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • pf — pointer to PF structure. that's the whole argument list, one (1) single pointer, and it's the PF struct. main character energy, honestly 👑

🦋 SEE ALSO 🦋

the whole friend group, fr fr — every single one of these is on the list:

twenty of them. twenty!! it's giving "the whole squad pulled up" 😭 and yeah, ice_eswitch_enable_switchdev(9) is literally right there next to its disable twin — siblings, your honor 💖
