✨ NAME ✨

ixgbevf_setup_all_rx_resources — allocate all queues Rx resources 🦋

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int ixgbevf_setup_all_rx_resources (struct ixgbevf_adapter *adapter );

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

  • adapter — the board private structure 💅 that's it, that's the whole argument, she's lowkey the key to everything

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so here's the tea 🫖: if this function returns with an error, it's possible that one or more of the rings is populated (while the rest are not). like, a partial slay 😭 — some rings are living their best life, the others are empty.

⚠️ real talk: it is the caller's duty to clean those orphaned rings. not the function's problem, not the kernel's problem — yours, bestie. don't leave them hanging 🙈
