🌈 set_rx_mode — Kernel API Manual, but make it cute 🌈

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for set_rx_mode. it's giving tiny-function-big-SiS900-energy, and we're gonna read it together like the group chat is watching. 💅

🎀 NAME 🎀

set_rx_mode — Set SiS900 receive mode. periodt.

📜 SYNOPSIS 📜

void set_rx_mode (struct net_device *net_dev );

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

• net_dev — the net device to be set. that's the one, bestie.

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so basically set_rx_mode sets the SiS900 receive mode for promiscuous, multicast, or broadcast mode. it also sets the appropriate multicast filter. 💖

and here's the lil hardware glow-up: the multicast hash table changes from 128 to 256 bits for 635M/B & 900B0. iconic, but keep those strings exactly as they are, iykyk. 🫶
