📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 ice_fdir_rem_flow(9) — the Kernel API Manual page bestie edition 🎀

okay so this whole page lives in the Kernel API Manual (that's the manual name, iykyk) and it's about one tiny little function that does one tiny little thing: it releases the ice_flow structures for a filter type. spring cleaning for filter structs, basically. no cap.

✨ NAME ✨

ice_fdir_rem_flow — release the ice_flow structures for a filter type 🧹💖

like literally, it's the "ok we're done with this, free the flow structs" girlie.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void ice_fdir_rem_flow (struct ice_hw *hw , enum ice_block blk , enum
ice_fltr_ptype flow_type );

it returns void, so no return value to obsess over — it just does the thing and dips 💅

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • hw — the hardware structure containing the filter list. this is the main character holding all the receipts 📋✨
  • blk — the hardware block. which block, bestie? that one. 🧱
  • flow_type — the FDir flow type to release. this is the one we're letting go of 🫶

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

fr fr there is so much extended universe lore here. the kernel file this all lives in is ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_ethtool_fdir.c — go read it, it's giving lore drop 📖🔥

and here's the whole friend group, all on the same manual, section 9, iconically long:

no notes, ate 💅🔥

💀 tiny reminder that this is kernel API territory — you're in C, in the driver, not in a shell. read the real code before you call anything, periodt 🙈

🌈 okay that's the whole page!! source is ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice, dated October 2026, manual ice_fdir_rem_flow(9), Kernel API Manual — mwah, bye bestie 🫶🎀✨
