ice_xsk_pool_disable(9)

💅 ice_xsk_pool_disable(9) — from the Kernel API Manual, bestie 🎀

okay so this page lives in the Kernel API Manual and it's literally called ice_xsk_pool_disable(9) — yes that long name is the whole thing, iykyk. it's in section 9, it's giving "internal kernel function" energy, and we're gonna get through it together ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

ice_xsk_pool_disable — disables a buffer pool region. that's it, that's the vibe. it's the off switch. 🦋

---

⭐ SYNOPSIS ⭐

int ice_xsk_pool_disable (struct ice_vsi *vsi , u16 qid );

like, it hands you back an int, it wants a struct ice_vsi * and a u16, and it's spelled exactly like that, spaces and all — don't @ me, that's literally the signature 💅

---

🧚 ARGUMENTS 🧚

• vsi — your current VSI 🫶 that's the one you're working on.
• qid — the queue ID. the specific queue. the main character queue, lowkey 👑

---

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

so what does it actually do to you? it returns 0 on success, and negative on failure. that's the whole description. no cap, that's all the page gives us — success is 0, failure is negative, and honestly more manpages should be this direct 💀✨

and yeah, since it can hand you back a negative number, bestie, check your return value. negative means something went sideways and we're not ignoring it 🙈
