💅 __parport_ip...rite_control(9)

okay so real talk, this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual, and it's about __parport_ip32_write_control(9). yes the name has ... in the middle of it, no i will not be explaining that, it's giving "the manpage generator got tired" energy but we move 💀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void __parport_ip32_write_control (struct parport *p , unsigned int c );

look at her. void return, two args, no drama. iconic ✨

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• p — a pointer to struct parport. yes, the parport. THE parport. main character energy fr fr 🫶
