🎀 octep_vf_update_pkt(9) — the kernel API manual glow-up 🎀

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual entry for octep_vf_update_pkt, section 9 ofc 💅 — this is the girlies' guide to the Octeon VF driver's little counter-refresh moment ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

octep_vf_update_pkt — literally just Update IQ/OQ IN/OUT_CNT registers. no cap, that's the whole job 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void octep_vf_update_pkt (struct octep_vf_iq *iq , struct octep_vf_oq *oq );

she takes two pointers and returns void, so she's giving "I do the work, I don't do receipts" energy 💀

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • iq — the Octeon Tx queue data structure 💖 (yes, Tx — that's what the page says, don't come for me)
  • oq — the Octeon Rx queue data structure 🌈

both of them are structs you hand over, and she's gonna go poke at those IN_CNT/OUT_CNT registers on both sides 👑

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

the kernel file lives right here, go be nosy:

./drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/octeon_ep_vf/octep_vf_main.c

and the whole friend group 🫶 (every single one of these, bestie, matching (9) sections and all):

that's the whole group chat, go say hi 💬

lowkey reminder: this page tells you what it does and who it takes, and that's it — the counters get updated, the vibes stay immaculate 💜

and that's the page, bestie! 🌟 source is ./drivers/net/ethernet/marvell..., dated October 2026, and yes she's still octep_vf_update_pkt(9) all the way at the bottom — icon behavior, periodt 💅🎀
