idpf_get_coalesce(9)

🌸 idpf_get_coalesce(9) 🌸

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual entry for idpf_get_coalesce — yes it's a real one, yes it's from the kernel, and yes we're gonna read it together 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

idpf_get_coalesce — get ITR values as requested by user 💅

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int idpf_get_coalesce (struct net_device *netdev , struct
       ethtool_coalesce *ec , struct kernel_ethtool_coalesce *kec , struct
       netlink_ext_ack *extack );

like, four arguments, one int coming back, that's the whole vibe ✨

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• netdev — pointer to the netdev associated with this query. it's literally the network device we're asking about 👑
• ec — coalesce settings to be filled. this is the one that actually gets the good stuff poured into it 🍓
• kec — unused. not me, not today, not involved 🙈
• extack — unused. also sitting this one out 💀

---

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

Return 0 on success, and negative on failure. that's it. that's the whole description. iconic brevity, no cap ✨
