ixgbevf_init_ipsec_offload(9)

💅 NAME 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to ixgbevf_init_ipsec_offload — it literally initializes the registers for IPsec operation ✨ that's the whole vibe, that's the assignment, no cap 🎀

(also hiii, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and yes we're doing kernel API lore today, buckle up 🦋)

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void ixgbevf_init_ipsec_offload (struct ixgbevf_adapter *adapter );

like… that's it. that's the function. returns void, so no receipts, no return value, she just does the thing and leaves 💅 periodt

---

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

• adapter — the board private structure 🫶 she's the main character here, the one carrying all the private board info into the function. treat her right 💖

ngl bestie, if you're poking at IPsec offload registers in a kernel driver, you already know what you're doing — this page is just here to hype you up and confirm you're in the right file 🌈
