ice_get_open_tunnel_port(9)

ice_get_open_tunnel_port(9) 🦋

okay so this is a Kernel API Manual page, and the star of the show is ice_get_open_tunnel_port(9). No cap, the whole assignment is right there in the name: retrieve an open tunnel port. main character energy only.

💖 NAME 💖

ice_get_open_tunnel_port — retrieve an open tunnel port.

That's it, that's the errand. It goes and retrieves an open tunnel port. Periodt.

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

This is the exact signature, bestie, so don't freestyle it:

bool ice_get_open_tunnel_port (struct ice_hw *hw , u16 *port , enum
       ice_tunnel_type type );

The return type is bool — that's what the synopsis says, and we're not inventing extra lore. 👑

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• hw — pointer to the HW structure. The hardware main character.
• port — returns open port. Yep, this is where the open port comes back.
• type — type of tunnel; it can be TNL_LAST if it doesn't matter. So if you're chill about the type, TNL_LAST is your girl.
