octep_ctrl_net_get_mtu(9)

🌸 NAME 🌸

okay so bestie, this is octep_ctrl_net_get_mtu, straight from the Kernel API Manual 💖 — the function that gets the max MTU from firmware. literally that's the whole name, no cap ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int octep_ctrl_net_get_mtu (struct octep_device *oct , int vfid );

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

• oct — a non-null pointer to struct octep_device. non-null, bestie — don't be passing a NULL and acting surprised 😭
• vfid — index of virtual function. the VF index, iykyk 🦋

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

return value: mtu on success, -errno on failure. that's it, that's the vibe check — success gives you the mtu, failure gives you -errno 🌸
