ice_vsi_cfg_crc_strip(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 ice_vsi_cfg_crc_strip — the ice_vsi_cfg_crc_strip(9) page, bestie edition 🎀

okay so you opened the Kernel API Manual (that's the manual name btw, ice_vsi_cfg_crc_strip(9) section 9) and landed on this one ✨ it's a tiny little function that does exactly one thing and honestly? iconic for it.

✨ NAME ✨

ice_vsi_cfg_crc_strip — configure CRC stripping for a VSI 🫶

like, it sets up whether the CRC (the FCS) stays in your frame data or gets stripped. that's the whole vibe check.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void ice_vsi_cfg_crc_strip (struct ice_vsi *vsi , bool disable );

no return value, no drama, it just does the thing 💜

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • vsi — the VSI you're configuring. that's the one getting the makeover 💅
  • disable — set it to true if you want the FCS / CRC to be in the frame data. (yes bestie, true means disable stripping, which means the CRC stays. i know. i know. read it twice, it's giving chaos but it's correct 😭)

⭐ SEE ALSO ⭐

the kernel source lives at ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_lib.c — go peek, it's right there 🧚

and here's the whole friend group, no cap, every single one of them 👑:

like i said. the whole group chat 😭💀

heads up bestie: the disable flag is a little mind-bendy — true does not mean "no CRC", it means "FCS / CRC in the frame data". read the argument twice before you ship it, fr fr 🙈

and that's the page!! 🍓 this one came out of ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice, dated October 2026, and it's the ice_vsi_cfg_crc_strip(9) entry in the Kernel API Manual — mwah, go configure some VSI bestie 💖✨🌈
