bnx2x_igu_ack_sb(9)

💅 bnx2x_igu_ack_sb(9) — like, the whole Kernel API Manual moment

okay bestie, so you know how the kernel has a manual for everything? yeah. this is one of those pages, bestie, from the Kernel API Manual, and it's about telling the IGU what the current SB value is. that's the whole vibe. short page, iconic function, no notes. 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

bnx2x_igu_ack_sb — update IGU with current SB value

like, literally that's her job description and she's not expanding on it 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void bnx2x_igu_ack_sb (struct bnx2x *bp , u8 igu_sb_id , u8 segment ,
       u16 index , u8 op , u8 update );

no return value, she just does the thing and dips. main character energy fr fr ✨

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• bp — driver handle. it's the struct bnx2x * bestie, your entry point to everything 🦋
• igu_sb_id — SB id. a u8, cute and tiny 💜
• segment — SB segment. also u8, also tiny 🎀
• index — SB index. this one's a big girl u16 💅
• op — SB operation. u8 again, slay 🌸
• update — is HW update required. tell her yes or no, u8 style 🌈

ngl the argument descriptions are lowkey mysterious in this one — I'm not gonna invent lore that isn't in the manual, because that would be lying to your face and we don't do that here 🙈
