XSDFEC_START_DEV(9)

🌸 NAME 🌸

XSDFEC_START_DEV — bestie, this is the ioctl that starts the SD-FEC core ✨ (and yes, we're in the Kernel API Manual, section 9, pull up a chair 🫶)

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

okay so. XSDFEC_START_DEV is the ioctl you call when you want to start the SD-FEC core. that's it, that's the vibe. main character behaviour fr fr 🔥

⚠️ but listen — this lowkey fails if the XSDFEC_SET_ORDER ioctl hasn't been called beforehand. no cap. so set your order first, then start the core, or it's giving error city 😭
