✨ NAME ✨

ice_set_clear_eir_bw — set or clear EIR BW 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void ice_set_clear_eir_bw (struct ice_bw_type_info *bw_t_info , u32 bw
);

like, that's the whole thing. no cap. it returns void — nothing comes back, it just does 💫

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • bw_t_info — the bandwidth type information structure 🫶 this is the lil container it's gonna poke at.
  • bw — the bandwidth, in Kbps — that's Kilo bits per sec, fyi 😌 don't get it twisted with bytes, iykyk.

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

so what it do: it saves or clears the EIR bandwidth (BW) inside the param you passed in as bw_t_info 👑 that's it. that's the whole vibe. save it or clear it, the function decides based on what you hand it — it's giving "one function, two moods" energy 💜

no weird side quests, no extra options, just EIR BW going in or out. periodt 🔥
