t4vf_write_rss_vi_config(9)
π t4vf_write_rss_vi_config(9) β from the Kernel API Manual β¨
okay bestie, sit down, because today we're learning about t4vf_write_rss_vi_config π this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual and honestly? it's giving "small function, big job." no cap. π
β¨ NAME β¨
t4vf_write_rss_vi_config β write a VI's RSS configuration π¦
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
int t4vf_write_rss_vi_config (struct adapter *adapter , unsigned int
viid , union rss_vi_config *config );
like, that's the whole signature. three args, one int coming back at you. slay. π
π ARGUMENTS π
adapterβ the adapter π«Ά literally the adapter, that's the whole vibeviidβ Virtual Interface ID, i.e. which VI we're talking about β¨configβ pointer to the host-native VI RSS Configuration buffer πΎ key word: host-native, because we're about to flip it into firmware-speak, iykyk
π DESCRIPTION π
so what does it actually do? it writes the Virtual Interface's RSS configuration information β and the iconique part is that it translates it into firmware-native format before writing π₯ so bestie hands over the host-native version, and this function does the glow-up conversion first, then writes it out. the way that's the entire job and it does it flawlessly. periodt. π
π SEE ALSO π
the whole friend group π first up, the source itself:

quick vibe check bestie: this page is from ./drivers/net/ethernet/chelsio... and it's dated October 2026 πΈ so yeah β that's the source and the date, consider them shouted out properly πβ¨
and that's the page!! go forth and write those RSS VI configs, you absolute main character ππ
