igbvf_tx_timeout(9)

💅 igbvf_tx_timeout(9) 💅

okay bestie, welcome to this igbvf_tx_timeout(9) page from the Kernel API Manual — yes, same title, we’re just being cute about it. This one is all about responding to a Tx Hang, and the vibe is very “NIC said something’s wrong, time to handle it.” ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

igbvf_tx_timeout — Respond to a Tx Hang.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void igbvf_tx_timeout (struct net_device *netdev , unsigned int txqueue
);

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• netdev — network interface device structure. That’s the big main-character struct for the network interface 💖
• txqueue — queue timing out (unused). Yep, it’s literally marked unused. No cap, this arg is just sitting there in the signature 🙈
