ice_imem_parse_item(9)

💅 ice_imem_parse_item(9) — like, the whole Kernel API Manual moment 💅

okay bestie, so this is page ice_imem_parse_item(9) from the Kernel API Manual, and honestly? she's a little legend. this one is a helper that parses 384 bits of IMEM entry. yes, 384. no cap, that's what it says. 🧚

🌸 NAME 🌸

ice_imem_parse_item — parses 384 bits of IMEM entry ✨

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void ice_imem_parse_item (struct ice_hw *hw , u16 idx , void *item ,
void *data , int size );

it returns void, so don't be out here waiting for a return value, she gives you nothing back 💀

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• hw — pointer to the hardware structure 🫶 the whole hardware vibe lives here
• idx — index of IMEM entry, like her little address in the lineup
• item — item of IMEM entry, the thing itself
• data — IMEM entry data to be parsed, aka the raw material bestie
• size — size of IMEM entry, gotta know how much you're working with

okay so there is a whole friend group here and we are naming every single one of them, no skipping, i refuse 🙈

ngl bestie, this page is short and sweet — but the SEE ALSO list is doing the absolute most and honestly? main character energy. don't skip it. 👑

and that's the page!! this lil cutie lives over in ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice, dated October 2026, and she signs off as ice_imem_parse_item(9) every single time. periodt. 💖✨🎀🦋🌸💅🫶
