πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

okay bestie, welcome to cmd64x_set_piomode(9) from the Kernel API Manual β€” header folded in near the top, vibes immaculate πŸŽ€

✨ NAME ✨

cmd64x_set_piomode β€” set initial PIO mode data πŸ¦‹

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void cmd64x_set_piomode (struct ata_port *ap , struct ata_device *adev
       );

πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • ap β€” ATA interface. That’s the ATA interface bestie, periodt πŸ’…
  • adev β€” ATA device. The ATA device in question, no cap ✨

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

So this function gets used when configuring the devices to set the PIO timings β€” and yes, the original literally says β€œot” instead of β€œto,” and we’re preserving that lil typo like a historical artifact 🫢. All the actual work is done by the PIO/MWDMA setting helper. No cap: the helper is the main character here, and this function is the setup girlie πŸ’…βœ¨.
