πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS

int bnx2x_func_state_change_comp (struct bnx2x *bp , struct
       bnx2x_func_sp_obj *o , enum bnx2x_func_cmd cmd );

like literally three args and an int return, no cap 🧚


🌸 ARGUMENTS

  • bp β€” the device handle πŸ’» your lil pointer to the whole device, she's the main character
  • o β€” function info πŸŽ€ the function object, carrying all the function-y details
  • cmd β€” "more info" πŸ™ˆ yeah that's what the docs say and I'm not gonna invent extra lore for you, so: more info, that's her
