ice_fdir_erase_flow_from_hw(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 ice_fdir_erase_flow_from_hw — from the Kernel API Manual, bestie ✨

Okay so picture this: you're deep in the Intel ice driver, the FDir profile tables are being so dramatic, and you just need ONE flow gone. That's this function. It's the "delete that filter from the hardware profile tables" girlie of the kernel API. No return value, no drama (well, it's void, so like… no receipts 😭). Let's get into it.

✨ NAME ✨

ice_fdir_erase_flow_from_hw — remove a flow from the HW profile tables 🗑️💖

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void ice_fdir_erase_flow_from_hw (struct ice_hw *hw , enum ice_block blk
, int flow );

Yeah, that's the whole signature — she's void, she doesn't return anything, she just does the thing and ghosts. 🫶

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • hw — the hardware structure that's holding the filter list. It's giving "main character holding everyone's info" energy. 🌈
  • blk — the hardware block. Which block? That block. enum ice_block block. 💅
  • flow — the FDir flow type you wanna release back into the wild. The one getting erased. Bye bestie 👋✨
