💖 fm10k_watchdog_host_is_ready(9) — hey bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual 🎀

okay so real talk, this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual (yes, that's the manual name, we're not being shady about it) and it's all about one tiny little function that keeps your netdev vibes in check. no cap, it's a whole mood. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

fm10k_watchdog_host_is_ready — update netdev status based on host ready 🦋

like, the host said it's ready, and this function is the one that goes and tells the netdev about it. it's giving messenger energy, fr fr.

⭐ SYNOPSIS ⭐

void fm10k_watchdog_host_is_ready (struct fm10k_intfc *interface );

she takes exactly one thing and she returns nothing. void said "i don't owe you a return value" and honestly? periodt. 💅

🧚 ARGUMENTS 🧚

• interface — board private structure. that's it, that's the whole arg. it's the lil' private struct where the board keeps all its secrets, and we're handing it over so the function can peek at the host-ready status and update things accordingly. slay.
