e1000e_read_...g_igp_locked(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💖 NAME 💖

e1000e_read_phy_reg_igp_locked — read igp PHY register ✨

Yup bestie, you're on the e1000e_read_...g_igp_locked(9) page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's giving very specific kernel-function energy 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

s32 e1000e_read_phy_reg_igp_locked (struct e1000_hw *hw , u32 offset , u16 *data );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • hw — pointer to the HW structure 🫶
  • offset — register offset to be read 🔍
  • data — pointer to the read data 🍓

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So this function reads the PHY register at offset and stores the retrieved information in data. That's the whole vibe, no cap 💖

Heads up bestie: it assumes the semaphore is already acquired 😭 Like, do not roll up to this function without your semaphore already handled, okay?

And here's the whole linked squad, every single one, no gatekeeping:

Okay that's literally the whole page, bestie 🫶 This lil manual came from ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e..., was dated October 2026, and the footer still says e1000e_read_...g_igp_locked(9) — periodt 💅✨
