ENUM DPMAC_LINK_TYPE(9)

💅 enum dpmac_link_type(9) — the Kernel API Manual glow-up 🎀

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for enum dpmac_link_type and honestly? it's giving "small but mighty." it's a little enum that tells you what kind of link a DPMAC is rocking. that's it, that's the whole vibe. let's get into it ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

enum dpmac_link_type — DPMAC link type 💖

like, the actual type of the link, no cap.

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

here's the whole thing in all its glory, copy-pasted exactly because we do not mess with the source:

enum dpmac_link_type {
    DPMAC_LINK_TYPE_NONE ,
    DPMAC_LINK_TYPE_FIXED ,
    DPMAC_LINK_TYPE_PHY ,
    DPMAC_LINK_TYPE_BACKPLANE

};

look at her. four constants. main character energy, honestly 👑

---

🌈 Constants 🌈

every constant gets her moment, bestie:

• DPMAC_LINK_TYPE_NONE — no link 💀 like, there's nothing there. the void. the "it's not you it's me" of link types.
• DPMAC_LINK_TYPE_FIXED — the link is a fixed type. it's locked in, it's committed, it's not going anywhere 🫶
• DPMAC_LINK_TYPE_PHY — link by PHY ID ⭐ that's the vibe check right there.
• DPMAC_LINK_TYPE_BACKPLANE — backplane link type 🧚 serving backplane realness, we love to see it.
