t4_ofld_send(9)

okay so bestie, welcome to t4_ofld_send(9) from the Kernel API Manual — this is the send-an-offload-packet moment, and it's lowkey iconic. no cap 💅✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

t4_ofld_send - send an offload packet 🦋

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int t4_ofld_send (struct adapter *adap , struct sk_buff *skb );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• adap — the adapter. that's the adapter we're working with, periodt 👑
• skb — the packet. literally the packet in question 📦

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Sends an offload packet. We use the packet queue_mapping to select the appropriate Tx queue as follows: bit 0 indicates whether the packet should be sent as regular or control, bits 1-15 select the queue. that's the whole vibe check, bestie 💫
