ice_vsi_uses_fltr(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 ice_vsi_uses_fltr — a whole vibe check for your VSI

okay so bestie, welcome to ice_vsi_uses_fltr(9), from the Kernel API Manual ✨ (yes the whole manual, we're fancy now). This one's a little one-shot function living in the Intel ice driver world, and honestly it's giving "tiny function, big responsibility."

🌸 NAME 🌸

ice_vsi_uses_fltr — literally determine if a given VSI uses a specified filter. that's it. that's the whole job. 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bool ice_vsi_uses_fltr (struct ice_fltr_mgmt_list_entry *fm_entry , u16
vsi_handle );

so it hands you back a bool — cute, simple, no notes. and it takes two things: fm_entry and vsi_handle. keep scrolling, we're gonna talk about both 🫶

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • fm_entry — the filter entry we're inspecting, bestie. this is the thing we're asking questions about, so be nice to it.
  • vsi_handle — the VSI handle we're comparing against the filter info. like, "does this VSI handle match up with what's in this filter?" that's the whole assignment. 💅

ngl, two arguments, a bool return, and a whole lot of drama in the SEE ALSO section. let's get into it 👑

🦋 SEE ALSO 🦋

okay first things first, the kernel file this whole thing lives in:

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

and now... the friends. the extended universe. the group chat. prepare yourself 😭✨

like. that's a lot of friends. and every single one of them is invited to the function. no cap. 🧚💜

🌈 sign-off 🌈

and that's the page, bestie! this one lives over in ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice, and the timestamp on this whole thing is October 2026. go check if your VSI uses that filter, slay, and remember: the bool is always telling the truth 💖🔥👑

periodt. 🎀
