and the kernel file she actually lives in, for when you wanna go read the source like the little nerd you are π:
./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/idpf_lib.c
ngl the fact that the source path lists idpf_lib.c before the giant function parade is very "here's my house, and here's everyone who's ever visited" energy. respect π
okay bestie, that's the whole page, go forth and handle those mailbox responses π this has been idpf_mbx_task(9) from ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf, dated October 2026 β thanks for reading, mwah, slay, periodt πβ¨π₯
