e1000_write..._80003es2lan(9)
π e1000_write_phy_reg_gg82563_80003es2lan β from the Kernel API Manual, bestie β¨
okay so picture this: we're deep in the kernel docs, section 9, and today's main character is e1000_write_phy_reg_gg82563_80003es2lan. yeah that's a mouthful, i know, but she's iconic and she knows it π
β¨ NAME β¨
e1000_write_phy_reg_gg82563_80003es2lan β literally just writes a GG82563 PHY register. that's the whole vibe. no cap πΈ
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
s32 e1000_write_phy_reg_gg82563_80003es2lan (struct e1000_hw *hw , u32
offset , u16 data );
it's giving "three arguments and a s32 return, periodt" π
π ARGUMENTS π
hwβ pointer to the HW structure. like, the hardware context bestie, she needs to know where we're operating π«Άoffsetβ offset of the register to read. yes it says "read" even though this is a write function. we don't ask questions, we just copy the docs fr fr πdataβ value to write to the register. the actual payload, the moment, the star of the show β
π DESCRIPTION π
Write to the GG82563 PHY register. that's it. that's the whole description. short, sweet, and honestly kind of a slay π
like yes, the name is a whole paragraph on its own, but the description keeps it cute and minimal. love that for her π
ngl the function name alone is longer than the description, and honestly? respect.
π SEE ALSO π
the whole friend group showed up for this one, so let's give them their moment π€©

likeβ¦ that's a whole group chat of _80003es2lan functions and they ALL said "add me to the list" ππ
and that's the page bestie!! sourced from ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e... and dated October 2026 β go forth and write those PHY registers, you absolute icon, and remember: the name is long but the aura is longer π
