cxgb4_ptp_enable(9)
π cxgb4_ptp_enable(9) β a Kernel API Manual moment π
okay bestie, so this one is from the Kernel API Manual and honestly? It's giving "small function, big responsibilities, zero features unlocked." Let's get into it π«Ά
β¨ NAME β¨
cxgb4_ptp_enable β enable or disable an ancillary feature β¨
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
int cxgb4_ptp_enable (struct ptp_clock_info *ptp , struct
ptp_clock_request *request , int on );
like, that's the whole signature, no cap π
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
ptpβ the ptp clock structure π this is the lil clock baddie we're working withrequestβ the desired resource to enable or disable π i.e. which feature you're asking aboutonβ the caller passesoneto enable orzeroto disable π«Ά yes literally just 1 or 0, she's simple like that
π§ DESCRIPTION π§
So the vibe is: this one enables (or disables, she's versatile π ) ancillary features of the PHC subsystem, mkay?
But here's the tea, bestie β currently, no ancillary features are supported. π That's it. That's the function. She's a whole gatekeeper for a party with nobody on the guest list. Iconic behaviour, honestly.
fr fr though, don't go expecting features here β the manpage is super clear that there are none supported right now. Not me reading this and going "so... nothing?" β yes. Nothing. And that's valid. π
