STRUCT VIRTCHNL2_PTP_SET_DEV_CLK_TIME(9)
π NAME
struct virtchnl2_ptp_set_dev_clk_time β bestie, this one's the struct that rides along with the message VIRTCHNL2_OP_PTP_SET_DEV_CLK_TIME. That's it, that's the whole vibe β¨
This page lives in the Kernel API Manual, and the full title got cropped to struct virt...dev_clk_time(9) because, like, terminal width said no π
π¦ SYNOPSIS
struct virtchnl2_ptp_set_dev_clk_time {
__le64 dev_time_ns;
u8 pad[8];
};
no cap, that's the whole struct β two members and a dream π
πΈ Members
dev_time_nsβ the device time value, and it's expressed in nanoseconds, to set. Nanoseconds, bestie. That's the assignment π«Άpadβ literally justu8 pad[8]padding, chilling there for future extensions. Iconic "reserved for later" main character energy β¨
π Description
Okay so here's the lore: the PF/VF sends this message to set the time of the main timer. That's it. That's the job. Sending a struct to set the clock, lowkey slaying β°π

okay that's the page, bestie π§ thank you for coming to my ted talk. this icon dropped from <code>./include/linux/net/intel</code> back in October 2026, and the header/footer keeps hyping it as <code>struct virt...dev_clk_time(9)</code> because the real name was too long for the topline. periodt π
