STRUCT QLINK_CMD_MANAGE_INTF(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

okay so real quick: this is a page out of the Kernel API Manual, and it's about one single struct. tiny struct, big job. let's get into it 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

struct qlink_cmd_manage_intf β€” the interface management command. that's it, that's the whole vibe. πŸ’–


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

struct qlink_cmd_manage_intf {
    struct qlink_cmd chdr;
    struct qlink_intf_info intf_info;
 };

look at her. two fields. she's literally iconic and she knows it. ✨


πŸŽ€ Members πŸŽ€

  • intf_info β€” the interface description. that's the whole personality of this field, no cap. πŸ’…

🌸 Description 🌸

so this struct is literally just the data payload for the interface management commands β€” and there are exactly three of them, bestie:

  • QLINK_CMD_ADD_INTF
  • QLINK_CMD_DEL_INTF
  • QLINK_CMD_CHANGE_INTF

add, delete, change. the holy trinity of "i'm managing my interfaces and i'm slaying while i do it". 🧚 that's it. that's the description. the whole thing. don't come for me, i don't write the manpages, i just make them cute.

like… that's the entire extended friend group. every last one of them. i would never ghost a single (9) reference, that's not the energy we're on here πŸ’œ


ngl bestie, if you clicked into this page looking for a plot twist, there isn't one. it's a struct with two members and three commands. but she's serving, and that's enough. 🌈

okay that's the whole page!! mwah πŸ’‹ this was pulled from ./drivers/net/wireless/quanten... and dated October 2026 β€” so like, future-core of it all. stan. πŸŽ€πŸ¦‹πŸ’–
