ixgbe_fcoe_ddp_put(9)

✨ ixgbe_fcoe_ddp_put(9) ✨

okay bestie, this one's a kernel API manual page 💅 and honestly? it's giving "small function, big responsibilities." let's get into it 🫶

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

ixgbe_fcoe_ddp_put — free the ddp context for a given xid ✨

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

int ixgbe_fcoe_ddp_put (struct net_device *netdev , u16 xid );

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• netdev — the corresponding net_device 💖 like, the one this whole thing is attached to
• xid — the xid whose corresponding ddp is gonna get freed 🫶 that's the one we're letting go of

---

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

so this function? it's literally the implementation of net_device_ops.ndo_fcoe_ddp_done, no cap 🔥 and it's expected to be called by the ULD — that's the FCP layer of libfc, iykyk — so that the corresponding ddp context gets released once the I/O is done 🧚✨

like, the vibes are: I/O finishes → ddp context needs to go → this function handles it. iconic behaviour honestly 👑

---

💜 RETURN 💜

the data length already ddp-ed, in bytes 📏 (yes, the return value is a length, not a status — that's just how it is bestie 🙈)
