likeβ¦ she knows everyone. main character energy fr fr. π
ngl the whole "free all Rx buffer resources" thing means this one is a cleanup / release function β so treat it like the end-of-night sweep: respectful, thorough, no leftovers. π
and that's the page!! sign-off time: this cutie lives over in ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf, dated October 2026, and the whole thing is filed under idpf_rx_buf_rel_bufq(9). take care of your buffer queues and they'll take care of you ππ
