ixgbe_rss_indir_tbl_entries(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💖 NAME 💖

ixgbe_rss_indir_tbl_entries — bestie, this one literally just tells you how many entries the RSS indirection table has 🎀 (this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, no. 9 section, iykyk)

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

u32 ixgbe_rss_indir_tbl_entries (struct ixgbe_adapter *adapter );

okay so it hands you back a u32 and takes exactly one thing. that's the whole vibe. 💅

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • adapter — the device handle. like, the actual adapter you're curious about 🫶 that's it, that's the parameter.

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

the way this function just counts entries for you 😭 the number you get back depends entirely on which chip you're on, so let's do a little vibe check per family:

  • 82598/82599/X540: 128
  • X550(non-SRIOV mode): 512
  • X550(SRIOV mode): 64

periodt. three chips, three numbers, no cap 💀 just match your adapter to its row and slay.

ok real talk though: notice how the same X550 gives you 512 normally and only 64 in SRIOV mode? that's a whole different main character moment depending on mode, so don't be out here assuming one number fits all 🙈
