ixgbe_ptp_stop(9)

💅 NAME 💅

Okay so this is ixgbe_ptp_stop(9) from the Kernel API Manual, and its official little name card is: close the PTP device. That's the vibe, bestie. 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

It's giving tiny-and-in-charge:

void ixgbe_ptp_stop (struct ixgbe_adapter *adapter );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• adapter — pointer to adapter struct. That's the whole argument, no cap.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so this one is the big goodbye for the PTP device — the page literally says it will completely destroy the PTP device. So like, this is not a casual little pause, bestie. 🫠

And it should only be called when the device is being fully closed. That's the rule. No drive-by stops. Periodt. 💅
