πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… ice_get_prof(9) β€” from the Kernel API Manual, bestie πŸŽ€

okay so before we even start: yes, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and yes, it's about the Intel ice driver. sit down, hydrate, and let's get into it ✨


🌸 NAME

ice_get_prof β€” literally just get profile. that's it. that's the whole vibe. 🫢


✨ SYNOPSIS

int ice_get_prof (struct ice_hw *hw , enum ice_block blk , u64 hdl ,
struct list_head *chg );

like, it returns an int, and it takes four things. slay. πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS

  • hw β€” pointer to the HW struct. the hardware. the main character. πŸ”₯
  • blk β€” hardware block. which block? an enum ice_block, that's who. πŸ‘‘
  • hdl β€” profile handle, a u64. treat it with respect. ⭐
  • chg β€” change list, a struct list_head *. your receipts, basically. 🧾

no cap, that's genuinely all the args. four of them. iconic. 🌈


πŸ’œ SEE ALSO

first up, the source of truth, the file itself:

  • Kernel file ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_flex_pipe.c

and then... the friend group. the whole entourage. ngl there are so many of them, but every single one is here because that's the rule, periodt πŸ’€

like... that is a lot of siblings. but they're all valid and they're all invited to the function party πŸŽ‰πŸ¦‹

lowkey a whole ecosystem in one header file. respect the grind. πŸ’…
