igb_write_rss_key(9)

okay bestie, you found the igb_write_rss_key(9) page in the Kernel API Manual — and honestly? it’s giving tiny function, important job ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

igb_write_rss_key — program the RSS key into device registers 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void igb_write_rss_key (struct igb_adapter *adapter );

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

• adapter — the board private structure, bestie 💅

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So here’s the vibe: this function writes the RSS key stored in adapter->rss_key to the E1000 hardware registers. 🔥

Every 32-bit chunk of the key gets read using get_unaligned_le32, and then it’s written to the appropriate register. That’s it — no cap, that’s the whole little task. 🦋
