🎀 NAME 🎀

ngbe_setup_tc — routine to configure net_device for multiple traffic classes.

Like, that's her whole job. No cap. She takes a net device and gets it set up with more than one traffic class. 💖

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int ngbe_setup_tc (struct net_device *dev , u8 tc );

That's the whole signature, bestie — returns an int, takes a struct net_device * and a u8. Nothing extra, nothing missing. 🫶

---

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• dev — the net device to configure. This is the main character of the call, the thing getting all dressed up with traffic classes.
• tc — the number of traffic classes to enable. It's a u8, so keep it cute and keep it in range.
