fas216_syncperiod(9)

🌸 NAME 🌸

okay so bestie, welcome to fas216_syncperiod(9) — your fave page from the Kernel API Manual. Her whole NAME vibe is literally: calculate STP register value. That’s the mission, that’s the moment, no cap. 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

The signature, exactly as she stands:

int fas216_syncperiod (FAS216_Info *info , int ns );

---

💅 ARGUMENTS 💅

• info — the state structure for the interface connected to device. Like, that’s the context, babe. 🫶
• ns — the period in ns (between subsequent bytes). Keep the parentheses, iykyk. 🎀

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Calculate the value to be loaded into the STP register for a given period in ns. Returns a value suitable for REG_STP. That’s the tea: hand her the period, she hands back the STP-register value for REG_STP. Iconic behavior, honestly. ✨
