ixgbevf_hv_...addr_list_vf(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 NAME 💅

ixgbevf_hv_update_mc_addr_list_vf — bestie, it's literally a stub 🫶

Okay so real talk, this page is from the Kernel API Manual, and it's about a function whose whole personality is "I exist and that's it." No cap.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

s32 ixgbevf_hv_update_mc_addr_list_vf (struct ixgbe_hw *hw , struct net_device *netdev );

That's the whole thing, icon. Two pointers in, an s32 out, and absolutely zero drama.

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • hw — unused 🙈 like, it's there, it's in the signature, but it is not doing a single thing
  • netdev — also unused 😭 same energy, bestie, just vibing in the parameter list

Both of them are giving "named on the group chat but never actually shows up to the hangout." 💀

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Hyper-V variant — just a stub. That's it. That's the whole description. 💅

The way that this function is literally a placeholder and the manpage is not even pretending otherwise — iconic honesty, honestly. 🌸

Lowkey important: it's a stub, fr fr. Don't go expecting it to update any multicast address lists. The Hyper-V variant just stands there looking pretty. ✨

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

Kernel file ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbevf/vf.c — that's where the whole friend group lives. Go say hi 👑

And that's the tea, bestie 🍓 This little page dropped October 2026, lives under ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i... (yes, the filename gets cut off, we don't make the rules 😭), and it answers to the name ixgbevf_hv_...addr_list_vf(9). Periodt. 💜✨
