okay bestie, welcome to the edac_pci_alloc_ctl_info(9) page from the Kernel API Manual ✨ this one is short, sweet, and very “alloc girl summer” 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

edac_pci_alloc_ctl_info — the alloc() function for the 'edac_pci' control info structure, no cap 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

struct edac_pci_ctl_info * edac_pci_alloc_ctl_info (unsigned int sz_pvt
, const char *edac_pci_name );

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• sz_pvt — size of the private info at struct edac_pci_ctl_info 📦
• edac_pci_name — name of the PCI device 🏷️

---

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

The chip driver will allocate one of these for each edac_pci it is going to control/register with the EDAC CORE 👑 that’s the whole vibe: one control-info structure per edac_pci being controlled/registered, fr fr 🫶
