lowkey obsessed with how the LED functions show up in that list too — e1000e_led_on_generic(9) and e1000e_led_off_generic(9) are literally this function's siblings 💀💖 go say hi to them

okay that's the whole page bestie, mwah 💋✨ this cutie came from ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e... and it's dated October 2026 📅🎀 and the manual page it lives on is e1000e_blink_led_generic(9) — periodt, slay, go blink some LEDs 💅🌟
