idpf_tx_buf_alloc_all(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💖 idpf_tx_buf_alloc_all(9) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ this lil page is all about idpf_tx_buf_alloc_all, and yeah the name is a mouthful but she's literally just the "get me all the memory for my buffers" girlie 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

idpf_tx_buf_alloc_all — allocate memory for all the buffer resources 💅 like, not one, not two, all of them. no cap.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int idpf_tx_buf_alloc_all (struct idpf_tx_queue *tx_q );

that's it, that's the whole vibe check 🔥

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

  • tx_q — the queue that's getting its buffers allocated 🫶 so basically "which transmit queue are we doing all this for", and that's your answer. she's the main character here 👑

🌈 RETURN 🌈

  • 0 — slayed, it worked, success 💖
  • negative — nope, it failed 😭 (yes, negative, not "some error code", the manual says negative, so negative it is, periodt)

🧚 SEE ALSO 🧚

so like, here's the whole group chat 💬 first up, the file that lives at this address:

  • Kernel file ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/idpf_txrx.c

and then literally everyone else in the friend group, in the exact order the manual lists them 🎀:

like I said. everyone. the whole roster. iykyk 💀🫶

lowkey a reminder bestie: this page only documents what's written here — one arg, one return, and a very long guest list. don't go inventing behaviour that isn't listed, that's not the vibe 🙈

okay that's the whole page!! mwah 💋 this one comes to you from ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf and it's dated October 2026 — so yeah, future icon behaviour 👑✨ bye bestie, go allocate those buffers fr fr 🦋💜
