💅 ixgbe_set_lan_id_multi_port_pcie_82598(9) — the Kernel API Manual glow-up 🎀

okay so bestie, we're in the Kernel API Manual today and the main character is ixgbe_set_lan_id_multi_port_pcie_82598. yes it's a whole mouthful, no i will not be shortening it, it's iconic like that ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

ixgbe_set_lan_id_multi_port_pcie_82598 — sets the LAN id for PCIe multiple port devices. that's the whole vibe. short, sweet, does exactly what it says on the tin 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void ixgbe_set_lan_id_multi_port_pcie_82598 (struct ixgbe_hw *hw );

like literally that's it. void in, void out, no return value to worry about, we love a low-stakes function 🫶

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • hw — pointer to the HW structure. that's the hardware struct bb, it's giving "everything you need to know about this NIC" energy 👑

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so what actually happens? it calls the common function — and then it does a lil extra cleanup: it corrects an issue with some single port devices that enable LAN1 but not LAN0 😭 like imagine being LAN1 out here thriving while LAN0 is just… not invited. not on this function's watch. it fixes that. periodt 💅
