velocity_free_td_ring(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💖 NAME 💖

okay so bestie, this is velocity_free_td_ring(9) from the Kernel API Manual, and it's literally the function that frees the td ring. That's the whole name vibe. 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void velocity_free_td_ring (struct velocity_info *vptr );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • vptr — the velocity situation. It's the argument, bestie, and the page labels it velocity; that's the whole tea. 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So what it does: frees up the transmit ring for this particular velocity adapter. We're freeing the ring contents, not the ring itself — and the way that distinction matters, okay? The ring itself stays. Periodt. 💅

🌸 SEE ALSO 🌸

The kernel file is ./drivers/net/ethernet/via/via-velocity.c, and here's the whole friend group, no cap:

source/version check, bestie: ./drivers/net/ethernet/via — date: October 2026 — and the page itself is velocity_free_td_ring(9). That's the cute sign-off, mwah. 💖✨
