ata_xfer_mode2mask(9)

✨ NAME ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the ata_xfer_mode2mask(9) glow-up from the Kernel API Manual 💖 — this one is all about finding the matching xfer_mask for an XFER_* value. slay.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

unsigned int ata_xfer_mode2mask (u8 xfer_mode );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• xfer_mode — the XFER_* value you’re curious about, bestie.

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

So basically, you hand it an xfer_mode, and it returns the matching xfer_mask for that mode. iconic behavior.

LOCKING: None. no locking drama here, periodt.

🦋 RETURN 🦋
