velocity_set_multi(9)

🌸 velocity_set_multi(9) — from the Kernel API Manual, bestie 🌸

Okay so we're diving into velocity_set_multi(9) today and honestly? She's a short one but she matters. This is the kernel API manual, and I'm gonna walk you through every crumb so you're never lost. Pull up a chair, grab a matcha 🍓

✨ NAME ✨

velocity_set_multi — the filter list change callback 💅 like, the little function that gets pinged when the address filters need a glow-up.

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void velocity_set_multi (struct net_device *dev );

That's the whole signature, no cap. Takes one pointer, returns nothing. Short and iconic 👑

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• dev — the network device. Yep, that's it, that's the whole vibe: it's a network device, and it's the one getting the callback. 🫶

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So here's the tea ☕ — the network layer literally calls this thing when the filter lists need to change for a velocity adapter. Think of it as the group chat notification that says "hey bestie, the rules changed."

When that happens, you reload the CAMs with the new address filter ruleset. New rules, fresh CAMs, main character energy only ✨

Fr fr, that's the entire job. No extra lore, no hidden side quests — reload the CAMs with the new address filter ruleset and go. 💀
