📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💖 ixgbe_max_xdp_frame_size(9) 💖

okay bestie, so this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual and it's literally about one tiny little function in the ixgbe driver family. She's small, she's specific, she's got exactly one job, and honestly? We respect her for it. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

ixgbe_max_xdp_frame_size — returns the maximum allowed frame size for XDP 🌸

like. that's it. that's the whole personality. she tells you the biggest frame size XDP is allowed to play with, no cap.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int ixgbe_max_xdp_frame_size (struct ixgbe_adapter *adapter );

🌈 ARGUMENTS 🌈

  • adapter — the device handle, aka a pointer to adapter 🫶 so basically you hand her the adapter struct and she knows which device she's talking about. iconic behavior.

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

okay so THIS is the part where the page just dumps her entire friend group on you 😭 like genuinely, this section goes on forever and we're not skipping a single one, because every single one of these is a whole person with a whole life and we are not doing them dirty:

and also, bestie, the actual kernel file herself:

  • Kernel file ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbe/ixgbe_main.c 🧚
ngl that list is giving "my mutuals" energy and I love that for her 💅 every single one is literally right there, go read them, they're all in section 9, iykyk 💜

and that's the whole page!! 🎀 tiny function, huge friend group, zero notes. mwah 💋

this little cutie dropped in October 2026, shipped from ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i... (yes the path gets squished, she's mysterious like that 🙈), and she lives in the Kernel API Manual as ixgbe_max_xdp_frame_size(9) — go off queen, see you in the kernel tree ⭐💖
