okay so bestie, welcome to the mult_to_ib_rate(9) page, straight out of the Kernel API Manual 🎀 grab your iced coffee, this one's short and sweet, no cap.

✨ NAME ✨

mult_to_ib_rate — literally does what it says on the tin: Convert a multiple of 2.5 Gbit/sec to an IB rate enum. 🦋 that's it. that's the whole vibe.

🔥 SYNOPSIS 🔥

enum ib_rate mult_to_ib_rate (int mult );

it's giving "one argument, zero drama" 👑
