ok so this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual (yes, the actual kernel docs, we're fancy now) and it's all about dp83td510_cable_test_get_tdr_status β€” the little function that tells you how the TDR test on the DP83TD510 PHY is going. bestie, let's get into it ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

dp83td510_cable_test_get_tdr_status β€” ngl this one does exactly what it says on the tin: it gets the status of the TDR test for the DP83TD510 PHY πŸŽ€


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

int dp83td510_cable_test_get_tdr_status (struct phy_device *phydev ,
bool *finished );

it's giving "small function, big responsibility" tbh πŸ’…


πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

okay so here's the whole vibe: this function sets the finished flag to true if the test is complete. that's it, that's the tea πŸ“ like yes, that's literally the entire job and it ate, no notes.


✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

  • phydev β€” pointer to the phy_device structure. your main character struct, the one holding all the PHY lore πŸ‘‘
  • finished β€” pointer to a boolean that indicates whether the test is finished. it's the little flag that tells you "we're so done here" πŸŽ€

πŸ”₯ RETURN πŸ”₯

0 on success, or a negative error code on failure 😭 so like, if it's not 0, something went sideways, and that's your sign to go look.
