💅 ice_vf_fdir_timer(9) — bestie, it's the timer page 💅

okay so this is straight out of the Kernel API Manual, section 9, and it's about a super specific little guy: ice_vf_fdir_timer. No cap, the whole vibe is "interrupt handler that lives inside a timer." Let's get into it 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

ice_vf_fdir_timer — the FDIR program waiting timer interrupt handler. That's it, that's the whole identity. FDIR programming is waiting on something, the timer fires, and this function is the one who answers the door. 🔥

void ice_vf_fdir_timer (struct timer_list *t );

Like, it returns void (nothing back, she's not here for a return value), and she takes exactly one arg. Simple. Clean. Iconic. ✨
