libeth_xskfq_create(9)
β¨ libeth_xskfq_create β create an XSkFQ β¨
okay so this one's from the Kernel API Manual (libeth_xskfq_create(9)) and it's literally just one job: spin up an XSkFQ. that's it. that's the whole vibe. π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
int libeth_xskfq_create (struct libeth_xskfq *fq );
yep, one arg, returns an int, we love a simple signature fr fr π«Ά
π ARGUMENTS π
fqβ the fill queue you wanna initialize. that's the one, bestie, hand it over π
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
so what does it do? it allocates the FQEs (yes, all of them π) and initializes the fields that libeth_xdp is gonna need:
- number of buffers to refill
- refill threshold
- buffer len
like, it's giving "prep work before the main character shows up" energy. lowkey essential, highkey underrated. π
β RETURN β
0on success β¨-errnootherwise π
so like, zero means slay, anything else means check your errno, bestie.
