π pch_gbe_get_pauseparam(9) π
okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual entry for pch_gbe_get_pauseparam β yes that's a whole mouthful, i know, but it's fine, we're gonna get through it together π«Ά
β¨ NAME β¨
pch_gbe_get_pauseparam β report pause parameters π
like, it literally just tells you what the pause parameters are. that's the whole vibe. no cap.
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
void pch_gbe_get_pauseparam (struct net_device *netdev , struct
ethtool_pauseparam *pause );
note the void β this one does not hand anything back to you, it just fills stuff in. main character behavior honestly π
π ARGUMENTS π
netdevβ the network interface device structure π§ like, the whole device, the icon itselfpauseβ the pause parameters structure βΈοΈ this is the one that gets the info dropped into it, iykyk
π¦ SEE ALSO π¦
first up, the kernel file where this little legend lives:
./drivers/net/ethernet/oki-semi/pch_gbe/pch_gbe_ethtool.c
and the whole friend group of related functions, all of them, no gatekeeping:
pch_gbe_get_link_ksettings(9)pch_gbe_set_link_ksettings(9)pch_gbe_get_regs_len(9)pch_gbe_get_drvinfo(9)pch_gbe_get_regs(9)pch_gbe_get_wol(9)pch_gbe_set_wol(9)pch_gbe_nway_reset(9)pch_gbe_get_ringparam(9)pch_gbe_set_ringparam(9)pch_gbe_set_pauseparam(9)pch_gbe_get_strings(9)pch_gbe_get_ethtool_stats(9)
notice pch_gbe_set_pauseparam(9) sitting right there next to its getter sibling β the duality of ethernet tooling, we love to see it πβ¨
fr fr though, if you're ever poking around pch_gbe_ethtool.c, this is the getter half of the pause-param duo. don't mix them up bestie π
and that's the whole page!! tysm for reading my little kernel lore dump, hope it slayed π
