🌸 ixgbe_dcb_config_tx_desc_arbiter_82599 🌸

okay bestie, so this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual, and it's about one single function that sets up the Tx Descriptor Arbiter on the 82599. that's it. that's the whole vibe. no cap, it's niche, but it's iconic niche 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int ixgbe_dcb_config_tx_desc_arbiter_82599 (struct ixgbe_hw *hw , u16
*refill , u16 *max , u8 *bwg_id , u8 *prio_type );

that's the whole signature, copy it exactly, don't be weird about it 🙈

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• hw — pointer to the hardware structure. the main character of the whole operation, honestly 👑
• refill — refill credits index by traffic class 🌈
• max — max credits index by traffic class ⭐
• bwg_id — bandwidth grouping indexed by traffic class 🍓
• prio_type — priority type indexed by traffic class 🧚

lowkey notice how everything is "by traffic class" / "indexed by traffic class"? yeah. that's the pattern, bestie. she's consistent 💀
