💅 netif_is_multiqueue(9) — NAME

okay so bestie, welcome to this tiny little page from the Kernel API Manual. The function is netif_is_multiqueue, and its whole thing is to test if device has multiple transmit queues. That's the tea ☕ — short, iconic, no cap.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

like, here's the exact signature, don't @ me:

bool netif_is_multiqueue (const struct net_device *dev );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• dev — network device. yep, that's the whole argument, bestie 🫶

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Check if device has multiple transmit queues. That's literally the description — it's giving "short and sweet" and I respect it. ✅
