💅 ice_eswitch_stop_all_tx_queues — Kernel API Manual ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the ice_eswitch_stop_all_tx_queues(9) page — yes that's the full title, yes it's a mouthful, no we're not shortening it, it's iconic 💖. This is the Kernel API Manual entry for it, and honestly? It's a short one. A little snack. A tiny little baddie that does exactly one job and does it slayfully.

🌸 NAME 🌸

ice_eswitch_stop_all_tx_queues — stop Tx queues of all port representors 💅

Like, that's it. That's the whole personality. It goes and shuts down the transmit queues on every single port representor. All of them. Not one, not a few — all. Group chat muted, notifications off, periodt. 🔥

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void ice_eswitch_stop_all_tx_queues (struct ice_pf *pf );

Not me copying this exactly because the details are sacred 🫶. Note the void — this function gives you nothing back, no return value, no little success message, no "u up?" text. It just does the thing and dips. And yeah, that space before the closing paren in pf ); is in the og, so it stays in the og. Character for character, no cap. 😭

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • pf — pointer to PF structure 👑

That's the PF. The Physical Function. The main character of this whole situation 🌈. You hand it a pointer to your struct ice_pf and it goes off to stop the Tx queues of all the port representors hanging off it. Lowkey the most low-effort argument list ever and honestly? Respect. 🧚

⚠️ Heads up bestie: this is void, so there's literally no return value to check. No exit status, no error code, nada. Don't go looking for one, she's not there 💀.

🦋 SEE ALSO 🦋

The kernel file lives right here, and yes you should go read it:

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

and then there's the whole friend group — the entire eswitch squad, all of them, iykyk:

💡 psst — ice_eswitch_start_all_tx_queues(9) is literally the opposite of this one. Stop vs. start. The duality of woman. She contains multitudes. 🌸

alright bb that's the whole page, she's short and she's perfect 🎀✨ from the ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice directory, October 2026, filed under ice_eswitch_...ll_tx_queues(9) — love u, go stop some Tx queues, mwah 💜💅
