_ctl_diag_register(9)

💖 _ctl_diag_register(9) 💖

okay so we're in the Kernel API Manual, bestie, and this page is all about _ctl_diag_register — the application register with driver moment. lowkey a little kernel-side setup slay ✨

🎀 NAME 🎀

_ctl_diag_register — application register with driver

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

long _ctl_diag_register (struct MPT3SAS_ADAPTER *ioc , void __user *arg
);

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• ioc — per adapter object. like, the adapter's own little object bestie 🫶
• arg — user space buffer containing ioctl content. that's the buffer carrying the ioctl stuff ✨

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

so basically this will allow the driver to setup any required buffers that will be needed by firmware to communicate with the driver — slay, that's the whole point 🔥
