πŸ’… artop_init_one(9) β€” the kernel API manual, bestie edition πŸŽ€

okay so you found artop_init_one in the Kernel API Manual and you're like "what does this even do" β€” don't worry, I got you. this is the page for registering an ARTOP ATA PCI device with kernel services, and honestly? it's giving very important little helper. ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

artop_init_one β€” Register ARTOP ATA PCI device with kernel services πŸ’–


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

int artop_init_one (struct pci_dev *pdev , const struct pci_device_id
*id );

like, that's the whole signature. two args, one int coming back at you. no cap. 🫢


✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

  • pdev β€” the PCI device you're registering, bestie. that's the one. πŸŽ€
  • id β€” the PCI device ID. yep, that's its whole job. πŸ’…

πŸ”₯ DESCRIPTION πŸ”₯

So this function gets called from the kernel PCI layer. That's it, that's the vibe β€” the PCI layer rings it up and artop_init_one picks up. πŸ“žβœ¨

LOCKING: the locking is inherited from the PCI layer, and lowkey important: it may sleep. so don't be out here calling it from somewhere that can't handle a lil nap. πŸ˜΄πŸ’€


🌈 RETURN 🌈

  • Zero on success β€” we love a zero, iconic. πŸŽ‰
  • -ERRNO value if it didn't slay. 😭
