b43_phy_read(9)

💖 NAME 💖

Okay bestie, welcome to the b43_phy_read(9) page from the Kernel API Manual — it's giving “16bit PHY register read access,” and that's literally the whole name section. The signature returns a u16 and takes a struct b43_wldev *dev plus a u16 reg, so we're keeping it cute and exact 💅✨.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

Here's the whole vibe, verbatim:

u16 b43_phy_read (struct b43_wldev *dev , u16 reg );

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

• dev — this is the struct b43_wldev *dev argument. The original page just says -- undescribed --, so no extra lore here 🙈.
• reg — this is the u16 reg argument. It also says -- undescribed --, so the manpage is truly keeping it mysterious 💀.
