ice_find_adv_rule_entry(9)

✨ NAME ✨

ice_find_adv_rule_entry — bestie, this one searches a rule entry 💅 (and yes, we're in the Kernel API Manual, section 9, so buckle up 🎀)

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct ice_adv_fltr_mgmt_list_entry * ice_find_adv_rule_entry (struct
       ice_hw *hw , struct ice_adv_lkup_elem *lkups , u16 lkups_cnt , u16
       recp_id , struct ice_adv_rule_info *rinfo );

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• hw — pointer to the hardware structure, obvi 💖
• lkups — the lookup elements, aka the match criteria for the advanced recipe; one structure per protocol header, no cap 🫶
• lkups_cnt — how many protocols we're dealing with, literally just a count ✨
• recp_id — the recipe ID that we are finding the rule for 🔥
• rinfo — other info about the rule, like priority and action info, the little extras yk 😭

---

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

Okay so this is a helper function ✨ — it searches for a given advance rule entry, and it returns a pointer to the entry storing the rule if found. That's the whole vibe. Highkey simple, highkey iconic 👑
