ata_msense_control(9) 💅✨

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for ata_msense_control(9) — this one is literally about simulating a MODE SENSE control mode page, and it's giving very specific kernel-function energy 🎀

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

ata_msense_control — simulate MODE SENSE control mode page. periodt 💖

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

unsigned int ata_msense_control (struct ata_device *dev , u8 *buf , u8
       spg , bool changeable );

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• dev — ATA device of interest, like the specific device you're looking at 🫶
• buf — output buffer
• spg — sub-page code
• changeable — whether changeable parameters are requested

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Generate a generic MODE SENSE control mode page. That's the whole assignment, no cap ✨

LOCKING: None. Like, none none. Zero locks. Nada. 🫶
