t4_link_acaps(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

okay bestie, welcome to the t4_link_acaps(9) page β€” yes it's a kernel man page, but we're giving it main character energy. It's all about Link Advertised Port Capabilities, and the vibe check is: synthesize those caps. ✨


πŸŽ€ NAME πŸŽ€

t4_link_acaps β€” compute Link Advertised Port Capabilities.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

fw_port_cap32_t t4_link_acaps (struct adapter *adapter , unsigned int
port , struct link_config *lc );

🫢 ARGUMENTS 🫢

  • adapter β€” the adapter. That's the main character. πŸ‘‘
  • port β€” the Port ID. Not a vibe, an actual ID. πŸ’…
  • lc β€” the Port's Link Configuration. Her settings, basically. πŸŽ€

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Okay so here's the tea: t4_link_acaps synthesizes the Advertised Port Capabilities we'll be using. It starts from the base Advertised Port Capabilities β€” which have been filtered by ADVERT_MASK, no cap β€” plus the individual controls for things like Pause Frames, Forward Error Correction, MDI, etc. It's giving β€œbuild the final advertised-capabilities look from the base caps plus the little control switches,” and honestly? Iconic. πŸ’–
