ice_open_internal(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💖 NAME 💖

ice_open_internal — called when a network interface becomes active. This is the Kernel API Manual page ice_open_internal(9), and yes bestie, we’re getting into it 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int ice_open_internal (struct net_device *netdev );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • netdev — network interface device structure. That’s the argument, periodt 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so this is the internal ice_open implementation. It’s the behind-the-scenes version, and it should not be used directly except for ice_open and reset handling routine. That’s the vibe check: internal-only energy, no cap 🔥

Bestie, seriously — don’t call this directly unless you’re ice_open or the reset handling routine. It’s giving “staff only” door energy 🚪✨

It returns 0 on success, and a negative value on failure. Simple as that 💖

🌸 SEE ALSO 🌸

Kernel file: ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_main.c
