napi_complete_done(9)

✨ NAME ✨

napi_complete_done — NAPI processing complete. Okay so this is the napi_complete_done(9) page from the Kernel API Manual, and bestie it's literally about marking NAPI processing as done. 💖

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

bool napi_complete_done (struct napi_struct *n , int work_done );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• n — NAPI context. That's the NAPI context you're working with, periodt. 🦋
• work_done — number of packets processed. Literally the packet count, no cap. 🍓

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

Mark NAPI processing as complete. Slay. ✨

⚠️ Should only be called if the poll budget has not been completely consumed. Like, do not skip this vibe check, bestie — it's a real caveat. 💀

Prefer over napi_complete. It's giving the recommended one. 👑

🦋 RETURN 🦋

Returns false if the device should avoid rearming interrupts. That's the whole tea. 🫶
