idpf_sriov_configure(9)

🌸 NAME 🌸

idpf_sriov_configure — configure the requested VFs. This icon lives in the Kernel API Manual, and her whole thing is setting up the VFs you requested. 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int idpf_sriov_configure (struct pci_dev *pdev , int num_vfs );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• pdev — pointer to a pci_dev structure. That's your PCI device pointer, bestie. 🫶
• num_vfs — number of vfs to allocate. Basically how many VFs she's allocating. 💅

💫 DESCRIPTION 💫

okay so idpf_sriov_configure enables VFs or changes the number of VFs. She gets called when the user updates the number of VFs in sysfs. That's the whole flow — sysfs says “new VF count,” and she's on the case. ✨
