ixgbevf_set_features(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💖 ixgbevf_set_features(9) — from the Kernel API Manual ✨

okay so bestie, buckle up, we're doing a kernel function today. this is ixgbevf_set_features(9) from the Kernel API Manual and it's genuinely so much cooler than it sounds, i promise 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

ixgbevf_set_features — literally just "Set features supported by PF", that's the whole vibe 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void ixgbevf_set_features (struct ixgbevf_adapter *adapter );

copy that exactly bestie, spacing and all, don't come for me 😭

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • adapter — pointer to the adapter struct. that's it. that's the whole argument list. one (1) pointer, and honestly? iconic minimalism 👑

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so what does it actually do — it negotiates with the PF about which features are supported, and then sets pf_features accordingly. like a little polite conversation between the VF and the PF, and then the pf_features field gets updated to match. no cap, that's the whole thing 💖

ngl this description is short but it's giving "confident and to the point" and i respect it 🧚

💜 SEE ALSO 💜

okay this is the part where the manpage goes absolutely feral with the cross-references, so let's get through them all, no skipping, we don't do that here 🔥

first up, the actual source file:

  • Kernel file ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbevf/ixgbevf_main.c

and now the whole friend group 😭 look at this roster:

like. the way that list just keeps GOING 😭 every single one of them, all accounted for, nothing dropped, periodt 💅✨

and that's the whole page bestie!! 🎀 this lil beauty comes from ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i... (the source path got cut off in the footer, so that's exactly what we're passing along, no guessing 🙈) and it's dated October 2026, closing out with ixgbevf_set_features(9) one more time for the people in the back 💖 slay, go read some kernel source, i love u 🫶🌸
