✨ e1000_raise_eec_clk(9) ✨

okay so bestie, we're diving into the Kernel API Manual today and the star of the show is e1000_raise_eec_clk(9) — yes that's a function name and yes it's a mouthful, but she's iconic and she knows it 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

e1000_raise_eec_clk — Raise EEPROM clock 🕐✨

like, literally just that. she raises the clock. that's her whole job. main character energy fr fr.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void e1000_raise_eec_clk (struct e1000_hw *hw , u32 *eecd );

two arguments, one void return, zero drama. no cap. 🫶

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• hw — pointer to the HW structure 💖 like, this is your hardware struct, she's the whole vibe
• eecd — pointer to the EEPROM 🌈 the EEPROM in question, handed to you as a u32 * bestie

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

Enable/Raise the EEPROM clock bit. 🔥

that's it. that's the whole description. she enables/raises the EEPROM clock bit and honestly? slay. sometimes a function just does one thing and does it well, and this is her moment 👑
