ice_set_vf_spoofchk(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

ice_set_vf_spoofchk β€” ok so this is the little function that flips the VF spoof checking on or off, bestie, and it's from the Kernel API Manual (ice_set_vf_spoofchk(9), yes that's the whole name, we love a self-titled icon πŸ‘‘)


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int ice_set_vf_spoofchk (struct net_device *netdev , int vf_id , bool ena );

Like, that's the whole signature. Three args, one int coming back at you. Slay.


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • netdev β€” the network interface device structure, aka the actual NIC we're talking to. It's giving "main character", everything else is just lore πŸ¦‹
  • vf_id β€” the VF identifier. Which virtual function are we messing with? Gotta know fr fr.
  • ena β€” the flag that enables or disables the feature. true = turn it on, false = turn it off. It's a bool, no vibes-based guessing needed πŸ’…

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Enable or disable VF spoof checking. That's it. That's the whole job. Lowkey iconic for how straightforward it is β€” you pass in the device, the VF id, and whether you want it on or off, and the function handles it. No cap, sometimes the small functions ate πŸ“

The kernel file lives at ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_sriov.c β€” that's the whole neighborhood, go say hi to the neighbors πŸ’œ

Like, that's a whole friend group right there and every single one of them is linked. Go read them all, I'll wait 🧚
