ixgbe_rx_is_fcoe(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 NAME 💅

okay so bestie, this is ixgbe_rx_is_fcoe(9) — the kernel API manual for ixgbe_rx_is_fcoe — and what it does is literally just: check the rx desc for incoming pkt type. that's it. that's the whole gig. 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bool ixgbe_rx_is_fcoe (struct ixgbe_ring *ring , union ixgbe_adv_rx_desc
*rx_desc );

it returns a bool, it takes two things, and it's ixgbe_rx_is_fcoe. slay. 🦋

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • ring — the structure containing ring specific data. yeah, it's the ring. ring stuff lives in here. 💍
  • rx_desc — the advanced rx descriptor. that's the desc you're peeking at. 🔍

💖 RETURN 💖

true if it is FCoE pkt. otherwise, not so much — and that's the entire return contract, no cap. ✨

🫶 SEE ALSO 🫶

first up, the kernel file itself, bestie — go read the source, it's right there:

  • Kernel file ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbe/ixgbe_main.c

and then. ok. and THEN. the whole friend group 💀 — every single one of these:

like I said. the whole friend group. iykyk 💀💖

ngl bestie this page is tiny — one function, two arguments, one bool. but every one of those (9) refs is a real page you can pull up, so go be nosy. 👑

🎀 that's the whole page! 🎀 it came from the kernel source tree at ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i... (yep, the footer itself gets truncated, iconic), dated October 2026, and it's literally titled ixgbe_rx_is_fcoe(9) in the footer too. mwah. 💋✨
