🌸 airoha_pcie_phy_init(9) — from the Kernel API Manual ✨

okay bestie, buckle up, because this is the little kernel function that could 💖 it lives in the Kernel API Manual and it's about to make your phy immaculate.

🎀 NAME 🎀

airoha_pcie_phy_init — literally just initializes the phy. that's the whole vibe. that's the assignment. 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int airoha_pcie_phy_init (struct phy *phy );

yes, it hands you back an int, because of course it does, and it takes exactly one (1) argument. no cap. 🫶

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• phy — the phy that's getting initialized. that's it. that's the girl. she's the main character here 👑

---

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so what does it actually do? it initializes the phy registers ✨ that's the whole thing. hardware settings go brrr and get set up.

but here's the plot twist 😭 — the hardware settings get reset during suspend. like, gone. wiped. not me finding out my settings didn't survive the nap 💀 so when the consumer calls phy_init again on resume, it should be reinitialized. periodt. don't skip that step, bestie, i'm begging 🙈

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

• the kernel file ./drivers/phy/phy-airoha-pcie.c — go read the source, it's giving iconic 👑
• struct airoha_pcie_phy(9) — the struct in question, iykyk 🦋

---

lowkey important reminder: suspend resets the hardware settings, so the resume path has to call phy_init again. that's not optional, that's a lifestyle 💅

and that's the page, bestie!! 🍓 this cutie came to you from ./drivers/phy, dated October 2026, and it's a whole slay ✨💖 mwah, go forth and initialize 🧚‍♀️
