πŸ’… ice_eswitch_...le_switchdev(9) πŸ’…

okay so real talk, bestie, we're in the Kernel API Manual today and the page header is a little ✨mysterious✨ because it gets cut off β€” the full name is ice_eswitch_enable_switchdev and she's the main character of this whole page. iykyk πŸŽ€


🌸 NAME 🌸

ice_eswitch_enable_switchdev β€” literally the function that configures the eswitch in switchdev mode. that's it, that's the whole job, and she does it slayfully πŸ’…


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int ice_eswitch_enable_switchdev (struct ice_pf *pf );

like, she returns an int (as one does) and takes exactly one argument, no more no less 🫢


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • pf β€” pointer to the PF structure. yep, just a pointer. that's the whole vibe check for this parameter, she hands you a PF and you're off 🌈

πŸ‘‘ SEE ALSO πŸ‘‘

first up, the actual kernel file where this lives, no cap:

./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_eswitch.c

and now the iconic ensemble cast β€” every single one of her friends, in the exact order the page gives them, because we don't skip anyone in this group chat πŸ’œ

ngl if you're reading this page you should probably also read those, they're all lowkey part of the same lore arc 🧚

aaand that's the whole page, bestie β€” nothing hidden, nothing cut, she's short and sweet like a good commit message πŸ“

this lil drop came from ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice, dated October 2026, and the footer still calls her ice_eswitch_...le_switchdev(9) because the name is too long for her own good 😭✌️ periodt πŸ’–
