πŸ’… fm10k_tlv_attr_get_value β€” like, the manual page, bestie

okay so you're looking at the fm10k_tlv_attr_get_value(9) page from the Kernel API Manual and honestly? it's a little cutie. let's get into it πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

fm10k_tlv_attr_get_value β€” get the integer value that's stored in an attribute πŸ’–


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

s32 fm10k_tlv_attr_get_value (u32 *attr , void *value , u32 len );

that's it. that's the whole vibe. three little params and she's done πŸ¦‹


🧚 ARGUMENTS 🧚

  • attr β€” pointer to the attribute. like, the source of truth, the main character πŸ‘‘
  • value β€” pointer to your destination buffer. this is where the good stuff lands 🫢
  • len β€” the size of value. gotta match up or she's not playing nice πŸ’…

πŸ”₯ DESCRIPTION πŸ”₯

so what does she actually do? this function places an integer value of up to 8 bytes in size at the offset that value points to. yes, 8 bytes, no cap. that's the whole ceiling, don't come at her with more 😭

and she'll return success β€” but only if the vibes are correct, meaning:

  • the pointers are valid βœ…
  • and the len value matches the attribute length βœ…
lowkey important: if either of those doesn't line up, she's not giving you success. it's giving "vibe check failed" πŸ’€ not a bug, just boundaries.
