📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 ice_sched_set_node_bw_dflt_lmt — ngl this is the "reset the bandwidth limit back to default" girlie ✨

okay so real talk, this page is from the Kernel API Manual (section 9, the kernel-API girlies 💖), and the function's full legal name is ice_sched_set_node_bw_dflt_lmt. The header truncates it all cute like ice_sched_se..._bw_dflt_lmt(9) but bestie that's literally the same thing, no cap 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

ice_sched_set_node_bw_dflt_lmt — set node's BW limit to default 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int ice_sched_set_node_bw_dflt_lmt (struct ice_port_info *pi , struct
       ice_sched_node *node , enum ice_rl_type rl_type );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • pi — port information structure. it's giving "everything you ever wanted to know about this port" energy 🫶
  • node — pointer to node structure. the actual node we're doing the glow-up on ✨
  • rl_type — rate limit type: min, max, or shared. pick your fighter 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so what does it actually do? This function configures the node element's BW rate limit profile ID — of type CIR, EIR, or SRL — to default. Basically a little "reset to factory settings" moment for that one limit, and honestly? iconic 🔥

⚠️ Important caveat bestie, do NOT skip this: this function needs to be called with the scheduler lock held. Like, held-held. fr fr, this is not a drill 😭

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

the kernel file this lives in: ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_sched.c 🍓

and now the entire friend group — the way there are SO many of them, I'm obsessed 💀 every single one, in order, no skips:

okay that's the whole page bestie, go reset some bandwidth limits, hold that lock, and slay 💅✨

mwah 💋 — this cutie lives over in ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice, and the manual gods stamped it October 2026. iykyk 🦋
