ice_rem_prof_id_vsig(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… ice_rem_prof_id_vsig β€” like, the (9) section of the Kernel API Manual, bestie

Okay so picture this: you're deep in the kernel, you've got a hardware struct, you've got a VSIG, and one specific profile has got to go. That's the whole gig. This one function. One job. Iconic behaviour honestly.


✨ NAME ✨

ice_rem_prof_id_vsig β€” remove a specific profile from a VSIG πŸŽ€


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int ice_rem_prof_id_vsig (struct ice_hw *hw , enum ice_block blk , u16
vsig , u64 hdl , struct list_head *chg );

Yeah she takes five args and hands you back an int. Lowkey a lot of typing but we move. πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • hw β€” pointer to the HW struct, aka the main character of this whole story 🫢
  • blk β€” the hardware block. which block? the block. it's an enum ice_block, she knows who she is.
  • vsig β€” the VSIG you're removing the profile from. a u16, tiny but mighty ✨
  • hdl β€” the profile handle, which is literally how you tell this function which profile to yeet. u64, so there's plenty of room in there πŸ’€
  • chg β€” a list to receive a record of changes. like a receipts folder, but for hardware. keep it, you'll want it πŸ“
