πŸ’– ice_vf_rebui...ost_vlan_cfg(9) πŸ’–

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ β€” yes, this is a real section-9 manpage and yes the name is literally truncated with ... in the middle because it's too long to fit, iconic behavior honestly πŸŽ€. The full function is ice_vf_rebuild_host_vlan_cfg and she's a whole vibe. Let's get into it πŸ¦‹


🌸 NAME 🌸

ice_vf_rebuild_host_vlan_cfg β€” add that VLAN 0 filter or rebuild the Port VLAN, no cap πŸ’…


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int ice_vf_rebuild_host_vlan_cfg (struct ice_vf *vf , struct ice_vsi *vsi );

literally just two args and an int return. clean. minimal. main character energy πŸ‘‘


🫢 ARGUMENTS 🫢

  • vf β€” the VF to add MAC filters for. that's her, that's the one we're working on πŸ’œ
  • vsi β€” pointer to the VSI. just a pointer, doing pointer things 🌈

🧚 DESCRIPTION 🧚

so the tea is: this gets called after a VF VSI has been re-added/rebuilt during reset πŸ”„. like, the reset happened, everything got shuffled, and now we're putting it back together.

and the PF driver? she's consistent, she's reliable, she always re-adds either a VLAN 0 or port VLAN based filter after reset β€” every single time, no skipping, periodt πŸ’€βœ¨


πŸ‘‘ SEE ALSO πŸ‘‘

okay this list is LONG and I need you to stay with me, because every single one of these is here for a reason πŸ“:

like I said. LONG. but we read all of them because we're thorough and we slay πŸ’…πŸ”₯


ngl this one's pretty chill compared to the reset functions β€” she's just here to make sure the VLAN filter comes back after the rebuild. lowkey essential though, don't sleep on her πŸ™ˆ
