cvm_oct_ioctl(9)

✨ NAME ✨

cvm_oct_ioctl — IOCTL support for PHY control 💖

okay so this is the cvm_oct_ioctl(9) glow-up, straight from the Kernel API Manual, and bestie, it’s giving “small but iconic.” No cap.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

the whole signature, copied exactly so nobody comes for me:

int cvm_oct_ioctl (struct net_device *dev , struct ifreq *rq , int cmd
       );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• dev — Device to change. literally the device we’re changing, bestie.
• rq — the request. yes, rq is right there.
• cmd — the command. iconic naming, no notes.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Returns Zero on success. that’s the description, periodt. if you were waiting for a plot twist, there isn’t one — Zero on success is the whole vibe. 😭
