ice_update_tx_ring_stats(9)

💖 ice_update_tx_ring_stats — Kernel API Manual, section 9 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the ice driver corner of the kernel docs 🧊✨ this little page lives in Kernel API Manual, section 9, and the function it's hyping up is ice_update_tx_ring_stats — yeah that's a mouthful, we love her anyway 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

ice_update_tx_ring_stats — literally just updates the Tx ring specific counters. that's it. that's the whole job. no cap 🫶

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void ice_update_tx_ring_stats (struct ice_tx_ring *tx_ring , u64 pkts ,
u64 bytes );

look at her go — returns void, so she's not giving you anything back, she's just doing the work 💅

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• tx_ring — the ring you want to update, bestie. the main character of the whole operation 👑
• pkts — number of processed packets. how many lil packets we're counting 🍓
• bytes — number of processed bytes. the byte count, obviously, we're thorough here ✨

fr fr, that's the entire argument list — three things, all required, no defaults, no surprises 🙈

💜 SEE ALSO 💜

first up, the source of truth — the kernel file lives right here:

./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_lib.c
