✨ libeth_rx_pt_get_ip_ver(9) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual entry for libeth_rx_pt_get_ip_ver — yes that's a whole mouthful, no I will not be shortening it, it's iconic 💅

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

libeth_rx_pt_get_ip_ver — gets the IP version out of a packet type structure, literally that's the whole job 🎀

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

u32 libeth_rx_pt_get_ip_ver (struct libeth_rx_pt pt );

---

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• pt — the packet type params, aka the little struct you're handing over 🫶

---

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

So this one is a wrapper, and its whole personality is compile-time vibes. It exists so the IPv6 code can get compiled out of the drivers when the kernel isn't supporting IPv6 — no cap, that's the point of it. Not me finding a function whose main character energy is "I disappear at build time" 😭

---

⭐ RETURN ⭐

You get back pt.outer_ip, or the stub for IPv6 when IPv6 isn't compiled in, periodt. 👑
