ice_set_loopback(9)

✨ NAME ✨

ice_set_loopback — turn on/off loopback mode on underlying PF.

Okay bestie, this is ice_set_loopback(9) from the Kernel API Manual — yes, the manual name is literally Kernel API Manual, we're being fancy today. This page is about turning loopback mode on and off on the underlying PF. On. Off. Loopback mode. Underlying PF. That's the whole vibe check, no cap. 🦋

🌀 SYNOPSIS 🌀

int ice_set_loopback (struct ice_vsi *vsi , bool ena );

It returns an int, takes a struct ice_vsi * named vsi, and a bool named ena. The spacing before the commas is iconic and we are keeping it exactly like that, fr fr. 💅

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• vsi — a ptr to VSI. That's it, that's the pointer-to-VSI situation.
• ena — a flag to indicate the on/off setting. The on/off flag, periodt.
