💅 ixgbevf_check_for_rst_vf(9) — Kernel API Manual ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to ixgbevf_check_for_rst_vf, straight outta the Kernel API Manual — she's a little function with one very specific job and she does it, periodt. 🎀

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

ixgbevf_check_for_rst_vf — checks to see if the PF has reset. that's it. that's the whole vibe check. 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

s32 ixgbevf_check_for_rst_vf (struct ixgbe_hw *hw );

like, literally hand her a hw pointer and she'll tell you what's up 🫶

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• hw — pointer to the HW structure. that's the whole shopping list, one (1) argument, she travels light 🧚

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so what she does: she returns true if the PF has set the reset done bit, or else false. no cap. that's the entire personality. the way that she just... checks. iconic behavior honestly 😭👑

tl;dr — reset done bit set? true. not set? false. she's not doing extras, she's not doing side quests, she's doing exactly this.
