📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

🦋 ice_is_vsi_valid(9) 🦋

okay so this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual, and honestly? it's a tiny little function with main character energy. let's get into it 💅

✨ NAME ✨

ice_is_vsi_valid — check whether the VSI is valid or not

like, that's the whole job. it checks if the VSI is valid. iconic, no notes 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

bool ice_is_vsi_valid (struct ice_hw *hw , u16 vsi_handle );

she takes two things and gives you back a bool. that's it. that's the vibe 🫶

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

  • hw — pointer to the HW struct. yes bestie, the hardware struct, the big one 🏗️
  • vsi_handle — the VSI handle. that's the thing you're asking about ✨

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

check whether the VSI is valid or not.

fr fr that's the entire description. no lore, no backstory, no dramatic third act — this function does exactly one (1) thing and it says so on the tin. you hand it the hw pointer and a vsi_handle, and it tells you whether that VSI is valid. lowkey refreshing tbh 😭💜

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

the kernel file this lives in:

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

and okay, the friend group is large — here's everyone tagged in the group chat 👑:

like I said. huge friend group. everyone's invited 🎉

ngl the whole page is basically four words of description and then a hundred cross-references, and that's the most gen z thing about it honestly 😭💀

and that's the whole page, bestie 🍓 mwah 💋 — brought to you by the fine folks over in ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice, dated October 2026, and filed under ice_is_vsi_valid(9) in the Kernel API Manual. slay, stay valid 👑✨
