πŸ’… bnx2x_func_comp_cmd(9) β€” the Kernel API Manual glow-up ✨

okay so bestie, we're in the Kernel API Manual today and the main character is bnx2x_func_comp_cmd. say it with me: b-n-x-2-x. iconic name, no notes. 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

bnx2x_func_comp_cmd β€” bestie this function's whole job is literally complete the state change command. that's it. that's the gig. πŸ’–


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int bnx2x_func_comp_cmd (struct bnx2x *bp , struct bnx2x_func_sp_obj *o
, enum bnx2x_func_cmd cmd );

look at that signature. three args, one int return, zero chill. copy it exactly, don't be cute with it. πŸ™ˆ


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • bp β€” the device handle πŸ’» like, this is your actual chip's little passport, okay?
  • o β€” function info πŸ¦‹ the function's whole deal, its state and its business.
  • cmd β€” more info πŸ‘‘ yes, the manpage really does just say "more info" and you know what? we respect the mystery.

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

so what does it do? it checks that the arrived completion is expected. πŸ’€ that's the entire description and honestly it's giving "cryptic older sibling who knows everything and tells you nothing."

basically: a completion showed up at the door, and this function is the vibe check at the door. expected? slay, proceed. not expected? well. that's a whole other conversation. the description doesn't elaborate and neither will i, because i'm not about to invent facts. ✨
