💅 fm10k_tlv_msg_test_generate_data — like, the whole vibe ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

fm10k_tlv_msg_test_generate_data — stuff a message with data. that's it. that's the whole thing. it literally just fills a message buffer up with attribute data. no cap 💖

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void fm10k_tlv_msg_test_generate_data(u32 *msg, u32 attr_flags);

returns nothing (void), takes two things, does the thing. iconic behavior tbh 👑

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• msg — pointer to the message 💌 like, it's the buffer you're gonna stuff full of attribute data. main character energy fr.
• attr_flags — list of flags that tell it what attributes to add. this is the vibe check that decides which attributes get invited to the party 🎉

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so this function is meant to load a message buffer with attribute data 🫶

that's the whole job. it's a test helper — it goes in, and it fills your message buffer up with the attribute data dictated by attr_flags. nothing more, nothing less. lowkey beautiful in its simplicity ngl 😭
