📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💖 ice_get_valid_rss_size 💖

okay so this is a section 9 kernel API page (ice_get_valid_rss_size(9)) — yes, the manual name is literally part of the vibe, we're in the kernel internals bestie, put your seatbelt on 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

ice_get_valid_rss_size — returns the valid number of RSS queues 👑

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int ice_get_valid_rss_size (struct ice_hw *hw , int new_size );

that's the whole signature, no cap. it hands you back a plain int. 💅

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • hw — pointer to the HW structure 🫶 that's your hardware context right there, the main character of this whole call
  • new_size — the requested RSS queues 🍓 like, what you're asking for
not me pointing out that new_size is the requested size and the whole point of this function is returning the valid one 🙈 the vibe check happens inside, bestie.

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

first up, the source file where this lives, in the kernel tree:

  • ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_ethtool.c

and then. okay. the friend group. this is a long one, so here's the whole crew, every single one, i'm not skipping a soul 😭💀

the way that list just keeps going — respect tho, they're all doing their thing in ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice and honestly? iconic 🌈⭐

heads up bestie: the two __-prefixed ones (__ice_get_coalesce(9) and __ice_set_coalesce(9)) are their own separate entries — the underscores matter, don't go editing them out, iykyk 💅
