ice_sched_clear_rl_prof(9)

💅 ice_sched_clear_rl_prof — from the Kernel API Manual, section 9

okay so picture this: you're deep in the ice driver, the Rate Limiter profiles have overstayed their welcome, and you need them gone — like, scrubbed from existence on both the hardware and the software side. that's this function. one call, full reset, no notes. and yes bestie, this page is a (9) — a kernel-internal function, not a little command you type in your shell. iykyk 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

ice_sched_clear_rl_prof — clears RL prof entries 💀✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void ice_sched_clear_rl_prof (struct ice_port_info *pi );

thats it. that's the whole signature. short king energy 👑

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• pi — the port information structure. this is the port whose stuff is getting wiped, so like… hand it over correctly, okay? 🙈

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so the actual tea: this function removes all RL profile from HW as well as from SW DB. like, both. hardware side, software side, everything. not "some", not "the unused ones" — all of them, periodt. if you were attached to those profiles, that's between you and your scheduler 🔥

it returns nothing (void), so no exit status to check, no return value to obsess over. it just does the thing and dips 💅

also, the source itself lives at Kernel file ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_sched.c — that's where the magic happens, go read it if you're nosy 🧚

🫶 friendly reminder: this one nukes every RL profile for that port, on HW and in the SW DB. it's not a "remove one" tool, bestie — that's what the *_rm_rl_profile friends are for. read twice, call once 💜

and that's the whole page, no cap 🌸 it's from the ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice corner of the kernel, dated October 2026 — mwah, iconic, no notes, bye bestie 💖🎀🦋
