💅 __pci_hp_initialize(9) 💅

okay so bestie, this one is from the Kernel API Manual, and it is literally about preparing a hotplug slot for in-kernel use. ✨ No cap, all the details are right here.

🎀 NAME 🎀

__pci_hp_initialize — prepare hotplug slot for in-kernel use 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int __pci_hp_initialize (struct hotplug_slot *slot , struct pci_bus *bus
, int devnr , const char *name , struct module *owner , const char
*mod_name );

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

  • slot — pointer to the struct hotplug_slot to initialize. 💖
  • bus — bus this slot is on. 🚌
  • devnr — slot number. 🔢
  • name — name registered with kobject core. 🏷️
  • owner — caller module owner. 👑
  • mod_name — caller module name. 📛

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

Allocate and fill in a PCI slot for use by a hotplug driver. 🌈

Once this has been called, the driver may invoke hotplug_slot_name to get the slot's unique name. 🦋
