idpf_wait_for_marker_event(9)
β¨ idpf_wait_for_marker_event β the Kernel API Manual moment π
okay so bestie, welcome to idpf_wait_for_marker_event(9) β that's the 9 for kernel API manual, section nine, we stay educated π
πΈ NAME πΈ
idpf_wait_for_marker_event β literally just sitting there waiting for the software marker response, no cap π«Ά
π SYNOPSIS π
int idpf_wait_for_marker_event (struct idpf_vport *vport );
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
vportβ the virtual port data structure π that's it, that's the whole vibe, she takes one (1) pointer and minds her business
β RETURN β
0β success, we ate, we slayed π- negative β failure π it's giving "something went wrong in the virtchnl pipeline" energy
π₯ SEE ALSO π₯
okay so this part is a lot, like the group chat got a little carried away, but every single one of these is iconic in her own right π§ β starting with the file herself:
Kernel file ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/idpf_virtchnl.c

like I said. huge friend group. main character energy all around π
ngl bestie, the whole page is basically: hand her thevport, she waits for the marker event, she tells you0or negative. that's the tea β no invented lore, no extra behaviour claims, we keep it factual and cute π
and that's the whole page, bestie π this one comes straight out of ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf, dated October 2026, in the Kernel API Manual β slay, periodt, go read the source πβ¨
