idpf_set_features(9)

💖 idpf_set_features(9) 💖

okay so we're in the Kernel API Manual, bestie, and today's main character is idpf_set_features — the little function whose whole job is setting the netdev feature flags. yes, that's it. that's the gig. she's a one-liner of a description but she is iconic and she's holding the whole feature-negotiation vibe together 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

idpf_set_features — set the netdev feature flags 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int idpf_set_features (struct net_device *netdev , netdev_features_t
features );

like literally that's the whole signature, no cap 🫶

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• netdev — ptr to the netdev being adjusted. it's a pointer, babe, not the struct itself. she points 💫
• features — the feature set that the stack is suggesting. the stack has opinions and it's bringing them to you 🍓
