💅 ice_lag_cfg_fltr(9) — the Kernel API Manual tea 🎀

okay so bestie, we're in the Kernel API Manual today and this little icon is ice_lag_cfg_fltr — the function that literally adds or removes a rule for LAG. that's it, that's the whole vibe ✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int ice_lag_cfg_fltr (struct ice_lag *lag , u32 act , u16 recipe_id ,
       u16 *rule_idx , u8 direction , bool add );

like yes, she takes six arguments and returns an int, no cap 💅

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • lag — the lag struct for the local interface. your main character struct, fr.
  • act — the rule action. it's a u32, she's got range.
  • recipe_id — the recipe id for the new rule. not a cooking recipe unfortunately 😭
  • rule_idx — pointer to the rule index. pointer! so she's writing back, be normal about it.
  • direction — either ICE_FLTR_RX or ICE_FLTR_TX. pick a lane bestie, you only get those two 💀
  • add — a boolean on whether we are adding filters. true = adding, and the alternative is... well. not adding. 🙈
