okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for ata_host_init — yes, we are literally in kernel API land, and this one is short, sweet, and lowkey iconic 🎀

NAME 🌸

ata_host_init — Initialize a host struct for sas (ipr, libsas) 🦋

SYNOPSIS ✨

void ata_host_init (struct ata_host *host , struct device *dev , struct ata_port_operations *ops );

ARGUMENTS 🫶

• host — the host to initialize. this is the main character struct, the glow-up target 👑
• dev — the device that host is attached to. know your attachment, bestie 💖
• ops — port_ops. short name, big importance, iykyk 💅
