ice_sched_cfg_node_bw_alloc(9)

💅 ice_sched_cfg_node_bw_alloc — Kernel API Manual (9) ✨

okay so like, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and bestie, it's a tiny one but it's important. It's all about telling a scheduling node how much bandwidth it's allowed to have. Let's get into it 🫶

---

🎀 NAME 🎀

ice_sched_cfg_node_bw_alloc — configure node BW weight/alloc params ✨

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int ice_sched_cfg_node_bw_alloc (struct ice_hw *hw , struct ice_sched_node *node , enum ice_rl_type rl_type , u16 bw_alloc );

---

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• hw — pointer to the HW struct, i.e. the hardware vibes you're handing over 💖
• node — the sched node to configure, the actual main character of this operation 👑
• rl_type — the rate limit type: CIR, EIR, or shared. Pick your fighter 💅
• bw_alloc — the BW weight/allocation, aka the number that does the thing ⭐

---

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

So what does it do? This function configures the node element's BW allocation. That's it, that's the whole plot 😭 — but like, that's genuinely the entire purpose, and it ate 💀✨

---

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

The source lives over in the kernel file ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_sched.c — go peek, iykyk 💜

k that's the whole page, bestie 💜 this was ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice, October 2026 edition, and the page itself is ice_sched_cfg_node_bw_alloc(9). slay, go configure some bandwidth ✨🦋
