✨ nfp_nfd3_tx_ring_reset(9) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual 💖 grab a lil snack, we're talking about nfp_nfd3_tx_ring_reset today and honestly? she's a short one. a little legend. no cap.

🎀 NAME 🎀

nfp_nfd3_tx_ring_reset — frees any untransmitted buffers and resets the pointers, like a little cleanup crew for your TX ring 🧹✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void nfp_nfd3_tx_ring_reset (struct nfp_net_dp *dp , struct
       nfp_net_tx_ring *tx_ring );

that's it. that's the whole vibe. returns nothing (void), takes two structs, slays quietly 💅

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • dp — the NFP Net data path struct 🫶 that's your data-path bestie right there
  • tx_ring — the TX ring structure 🎀 the ring in question, the main character of this whole page tbh

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so here's the tea: this function assumes the device is stopped — like, actually stopped, not "stopped" in the group chat sense where someone's still typing 😭 and it must be idempotent, meaning you can call it over and over and it's giving the same energy every single time. no surprises. iconic behavior fr fr 👑

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

lowkey a reminder: device stopped, idempotent, periodt. don't come for me if you skipped that part 💀

and that's the page!! 🦋 this lil drop of wisdom came from ./drivers/net/ethernet/netrono... and it's stamped October 2026 — so basically it's from the future and still cute 💖 mwah, go reset those pointers bestie 🫶✨
