ice_linkmode_set_bit(9)

💖 NAME 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for ice_linkmode_set_bit(9) — yes, the one and only ice_linkmode_set_bit — and its whole entire job is literally to set link mode bit. that's the assignment. no cap. ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

vibe check first: the return type is void, so she doesn't hand anything back, she just does the thing. here's the exact signature, character for character:

void ice_linkmode_set_bit (const struct ice_phy_type_to_ethtool
       *phy_to_ethtool , struct ethtool_link_ksettings *ks , u32 req_speeds ,
       u64 advert_phy_type , u32 phy_type );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

the cast, in order, with main character energy:

• phy_to_ethtool — the PHY type to ethtool link mode struct to set. like, this is the struct that's getting set, periodt.
• ks — the ethtool link ksettings struct to fill out. you're filling it out, bestie 💅
• req_speeds — the speed requested by user. literally the speed the user asked for.
• advert_phy_type — the advertised PHY type. that's the vibe.
• phy_type — the PHY type. short, sweet, iconic 🦋

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

first, the kernel file: ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_ethtool.c — that's home base 🏠.

mwah 💖 this page is from the ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice source/version corner, dated October 2026, and it's literally the ice_linkmode_set_bit(9) manual. slay. 🎀
