πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… es58x_can_reset_echo_fifo β€” like, the Kernel API Manual page, bestie ✨

okay so this is es58x_can_reset_echo_fifo, straight out of the Kernel API Manual (section 9, obviously, that's the whole vibe). sit down, grab a strawberry drink πŸ“, and lemme tell you about this little function.


🌸 NAME 🌸

es58x_can_reset_echo_fifo β€” it resets the echo FIFO. that's it. that's the tweet. πŸ’…


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void es58x_can_reset_echo_fifo (struct net_device *netdev );

no return value, she just does it. main character energy fr fr.


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • netdev β€” the CAN network device. that's your networking homegirl right there 🫢

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

okay so first thing you need to know: the echo_skb array of struct can_priv gets flushed by drivers/net/can/dev.c:can_flush_echo_skb β€” that's not this function's job, that's already handled elsewhere, noted, moving on. πŸ’€

what this function does is it resets the parameters of the struct es58x_priv of our device, and it also resets the queue (c.f. BQL β€” yes bestie, BQL, byte queue limits, iykyk). so like: priv params β†’ reset, queue β†’ reset. both. clean slate. iconic. ✨
