ice_virtchnl_set_repr_ops(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

🌸 NAME 🌸

ice_virtchnl_set_repr_ops — bestie, this is the one that switches you over to representor virtchnl ops 💅

okay so real talk, this page is from the Kernel API Manual (section 9, kernel-land, very demure, very coder) and it's about flipping a VF over to its representor-era virtchnl ops. short function, big glow-up energy ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void ice_virtchnl_set_repr_ops (struct ice_vf *vf );

that's it. that's the whole signature. no return value, because it's void — she does the thing and she leaves, no receipts, no follow-up texts 💀

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • vf — the VF to switch ops 🫶 like, the actual virtual function you're handing over to the representor side. this is the main character of the whole function ngl, everything happens to vf.

💖 SEE ALSO 💖

okay this list is long and honestly kind of iconic — it's basically the whole virtchnl.c friend group 💅 and the file they all live in is ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/virt/virtchnl.c, so if you want the lore, that's the address 🏠

ngl that's 69 references and every single one of them matters, so don't come for me about the length 😭 she's thorough, she's organized, she's that girl.

and that's the whole page, bestie! source file lives at ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i... (yes the manpage really does truncate it like that, not me, I would never 🙈), dated October 2026, and this whole thing is ice_virtchnl_set_repr_ops(9) in the Kernel API Manual — go switch those ops, slay, periodt 💜🌸
