ice_lag_config_eswitch(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

okay so bestie, this is ice_lag_config_eswitch(9) from the Kernel API Manual β€” section 9, main character energy. Its whole deal is: ice_lag_config_eswitch β€” configure eswitch to work with LAG. Periodt. πŸ’…

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

no cap, the signature is literally:

void ice_lag_config_eswitch (struct ice_lag *lag , struct net_device
*netdev );

πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • lag β€” lag info struct. The little LAG lore keeper, iykyk.
  • netdev β€” active network interface device struct.

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so this function updates all port representors in eswitch to use netdev for Tx. Slay. ✨

Then it configures the netdev to keep dst metadata (also used in representor Tx). This is required for an uplink without switchdev mode configured β€” like, not optional, bestie. πŸ’–
