wx_get_stats64(9)

💅 wx_get_stats64(9) — from the Kernel API Manual, bestie ✨

okay so quick vibe check: this little icon lives in the Kernel API Manual, and it's the one that goes and grabs the system network statistics for you. no cap, that's the whole job. let's get into it 🫶

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

wx_get_stats64 — literally just Get System Network Statistics. that's it. that's the girl. 💖

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void wx_get_stats64 (struct net_device *netdev , struct
rtnl_link_stats64 *stats );

returns void, so she gives you nothing back directly — she fills in your stats and dips. iconic behaviour honestly 💅

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• netdev — the network interface device structure 🦋 like, the actual NIC she's gonna read from.
• stats — the storage space for 64bit statistics 🍓 this is where the numbers land, so make sure it's ready for them.

fr fr, stats is storage space — she's writing into it, not handing you a fresh one. just so we're clear 👑
