📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

🌸 bdx_tx_db_init(9) — the Kernel API Manual page you didn't know you needed 🌸

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual, section 9, and today's main character is a little function called bdx_tx_db_init 🎀 it's short, it's sweet, it does exactly one thing, and honestly? we love a low-maintenance icon.

✨ NAME ✨

bdx_tx_db_init — creates and initializes tx db 💅 that's it, that's the whole job, and she does it flawlessly

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int bdx_tx_db_init (struct txdb *d , int sz_type );

literally the whole call, no cap — two args, one int coming back at you 🫶

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

  • d — the tx data base, your girl's very own struct txdb. this is the thing getting set up ✨
  • sz_type — size of tx fifo. yep, you're telling it how big the fifo should be 🍓

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Returns 0 on success, error code otherwise. that's the entire vibe check — zero means she slayed, anything else means something went sideways and you get an error code about it 😭

no extra lore, no secret hidden behaviour, just: init the db, report back. iconic behaviour honestly 👑

✨ SEE ALSO ✨

Kernel file ./drivers/net/ethernet/tehuti/tehuti.c — go read the source if you want the full story, it's giving "the real documentation was the code we read along the way" 📖💖
