aac_printf(9)

✨ aac_printf(9) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to aac_printf(9) — section 9 of the Kernel API Manual, aka the page where the firmware gets to talk and we just… listen 💅

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

aac_printf — literally just handling printf from firmware, no cap 🫶

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

void aac_printf (struct aac_dev *dev , u32 val );

---

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• dev — the Adapter. the main character of this whole situation, fr fr
• val — Message info. like, the info about the message. she's carrying the details 🔥

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so what she does is: print a message passed to us by the controller firmware on the Adaptec board. that's it. that's the whole vibe. firmware hands us a message, we print it. iconic behaviour honestly 🌈

ngl this one is short and sweet — the firmware does the talking, aac_printf just makes sure it gets said. 💬
