πŸ’… ixgbevf_ipsec_del_pf_sa(9) β€” the Kernel API Manual edit, bestie ✨

okay so picture this: you're deep in the Kernel API Manual (yes, that's the manual name, we're fancy here πŸŽ€) and you need to politely ask the PF β€” the Physical Function, the main character πŸ‘‘ β€” to please delete an SA. that's it. that's the whole vibe of this function.


✨ NAME ✨

ixgbevf_ipsec_del_pf_sa β€” literally just asking the PF to delete an SA πŸ—‘οΈβœ¨ no cap


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int ixgbevf_ipsec_del_pf_sa (struct ixgbevf_adapter *adapter , int pfsa
);

like, the whole function signature, verbatim, don't @ me πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • adapter β€” the board private structure 🫢 the little home base for all your board-specific gossip
  • pfsa β€” the SA index that the PF handed back to you when the SA was created, or the very iconic value -1 which means all of them πŸ‘€ (yes, all. every single one. go off)

⭐ RETURN ⭐

0 on success, or a negative error code 😭 that's it, that's the deal β€” zero means slay, negative means something went sideways.
