STRUCT NFP_TUN_MAC_ADDR_OFFLOAD(9)

💅 struct nfp_tun_mac_addr_offload(9)

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ — today's hyperfixation is a lil struct called struct nfp_tun_mac_addr_offload, and its whole personality is configuring the MAC address of the tunnel EP on NFP. that's it, that's the job. iconic behavior honestly 🎀

🌸 NAME

struct nfp_tun_mac_addr_offload — configure MAC address of tunnel EP on NFP 🦋

like yes queen, go off, tell that NFP what MAC address the tunnel endpoint is rocking.

---

✨ SYNOPSIS

struct nfp_tun_mac_addr_offload {
    __be16 flags;
    __be16 count;
    __be16 index;
    u8 addr[ETH_ALEN];
 };

look at her. four members, all business, zero filler 💅

🫶 Members

• flags — MAC address offload options. it's the little settings girlie of the group, keeping track of what options are in play 🔥
• count — number of MAC addresses in the message. and the manpage is very specific here: it should be 1. so like… don't be extra, bestie 🙈
• index — index of MAC address in the lookup table. it's giving "where do i sit in the spreadsheet" energy 📋
• addr — interface MAC address. the actual MAC, the main character, the moment 👑

no cap, this is a kernel struct so if you're reading it you're probably already in the source. go touch some tunnel_conf.c and slay 🦋
