✨ geni_se_read_proto ✨

okay so real quick bestie, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual — yes, kernel docs, we're doing big brain stuff today 💅 it's geni_se_read_proto(9) and it's honestly lowkey iconic.

🌸 NAME 🌸

geni_se_read_proto — read the protocol configured for a serial engine 🎀

like, it literally tells you which protocol your serial engine is vibing with rn. that's the whole job. no cap.

---

⭐ SYNOPSIS ⭐

u32 geni_se_read_proto (struct geni_se *se );

she takes one pointer, she gives you back a u32. short, sweet, main character energy fr fr 🦋

---

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• se — pointer to the concerned serial engine. yeah, "concerned" like it's got feelings about it 😭 just hand her the struct geni_se * and she'll do the rest.

---

👑 RETURN 👑

returns the protocol value as configured in the serial engine ✨ that's it, that's the tea — whatever protocol is currently set up in there, that's the u32 you get back 🫶
