ice_fill_adv_packet_vlan(9)

💅 ice_fill_adv_packet_vlan — Kernel API Manual ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the ice_fill_adv_packet_vlan(9) page 🧚 this one lives in the Kernel API Manual, and it is exactly what it sounds like: we're building a dummy packet and slapping a VLAN tag type on it 💖 lowkey iconic.

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

ice_fill_adv_packet_vlan — fill dummy packet with VLAN tag type 🎀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int ice_fill_adv_packet_vlan (struct ice_hw *hw , u16 vlan_type , u8
*pkt , const struct ice_dummy_pkt_offsets *offsets );

like, that's the whole vibe right there 👑 (and yes, she returns an int, no cap)

---

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

• hw — pointer to hw structure 🌈 that's your hardware hangout spot
• vlan_type — VLAN tag type 💅 the whole point of the function, honestly
• pkt — dummy packet to fill in 🎀 she's empty when you hand her over, you fill her up
• offsets — offset info for the dummy packet 🦋 so we know where everything goes

💡 reminder bestie: only call this with a pkt that's actually ready to be filled, and pass offsets so it knows where the bits go — that's the whole recipe, no invented steps from me 🫶
