📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 ice_sched_cfg_node_bw_lmt(9) — the manual page, but make it make sense

okay so bestie, welcome to ice_sched_cfg_node_bw_lmt(9) — yes that's the whole name, section 9, kernel API manual, she's long but she's worth it 🫶 this is the little helper that sets up the bandwidth limit on a scheduling node, and honestly? iconic behavior.

✨ NAME ✨

ice_sched_cfg_node_bw_lmt — configure node sched params 🌸

like literally, it configures the sched params. that's the whole vibe.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int ice_sched_cfg_node_bw_lmt (struct ice_hw *hw , struct ice_sched_node
*node , enum ice_rl_type rl_type , u16 rl_prof_id );

she takes four args and returns an int, no cap. returns int, takes struct ice_hw *hw, struct ice_sched_node *node, enum ice_rl_type rl_type, and u16 rl_prof_id. that's the whole squad 💜

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • hw — pointer to the HW struct 💻 lowkey the whole hardware situation lives in here
  • node — the sched node to configure 🌟 this is the one getting her bandwidth moment
  • rl_type — rate limit type: CIR, EIR, or shared 👑 pick your fighter
  • rl_prof_id — rate limit profile ID 🏷️ the ID of the profile, fr fr

🧚 DESCRIPTION 🧚

okay so here's the tea: this function configures node element's BW limit. that's it, that's the function. she takes your node and your profile and tells it how much bandwidth it's allowed to have — main character energy only, no bandwidth hogs allowed 💅✨

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

the source file, first of all — kernel file ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_sched.c 🍓

and then. and THEN. the extended family. every single one of these, no skips, i don't make the rules (i do, and the rule is keep every detail):

like i said. the whole family reunion 😭💖

🌈 the sign-off 🌈

this little baddie comes to you from the directory ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice, dated October 2026, and she's filed under the Linux Kernel API Manual 🎀 that's the source, that's the version, that's the date — periodt. go configure some bandwidth bestie, you've got this 💜✨👑
