📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

🌸 NAME 🌸

igb_find_vlvf_slot — bestie, this one finds the VLAN id or the first empty slot 💅

(it's an igb_find_vlvf_slot(9) page straight out of the Kernel API Manual, section 9, and we are so here for it ✨)

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

s32 igb_find_vlvf_slot (struct e1000_hw *hw , u32 vlan , bool
vlvf_bypass );

ok so look at her, she takes three things and hands you back an s32, literally iconic 🫶

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • hw — pointer to hardware structure. like, your actual hardware, the main character of the whole operation 👑
  • vlan — the VLAN id to write to VLAN filter. this is the number you're trying to place, no cap 🌈
  • vlvf_bypass — this one says skip VLVF if no match is found. she's the "nvm, moving on" flag 🙈

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

return the VLVF index where this VLAN id should be placed 💖

that's it, that's the whole job — you give her an hw, a vlan, and whether or not to vlvf_bypass, and she comes back with the VLVF index that this VLAN id should be placed at. slay. lowkey simple, highkey important ⭐
