💅 igbvf_set_uni(9) — a Kernel API Manual moment

okay so bestie, welcome to the igbvf_set_uni(9) page 🌸 this one lives in the Kernel API Manual and it's short, sweet, and lowkey adorable. Let's get into it ✨

---

💖 NAME 💖

igbvf_set_uni — configure unicast MAC filters. that's it, that's the whole vibe 🎀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int igbvf_set_uni (struct net_device *netdev );

literally just one function, one argument, no drama 💅

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• netdev — the network interface device structure 👑 this is the whole entire thing you're handing over

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so this routine? it's the one responsible for configuring the hardware so your unicast filters are actually proper 💖 that's the job. that's what it does. no cap. it rolls up, gets the hardware set up right for unicast filtering, and minds its own business 🧚
