🌸 genphy_c45_oatc14_cable_test_get_status(9) 🌸

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual entry for this absolute mouthful of a function. no cap, she's iconic, and she's here to check on an OATC14 10Base-T1S PHY cable test. periodt. 💅

✨ NAME ✨

genphy_c45_oatc14_cable_test_get_status — Get status of OATC14 10Base-T1S PHY cable test.

---

🌈 SYNOPSIS 🌈

int genphy_c45_oatc14_cable_test_get_status (struct phy_device *phydev , bool *finished );

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• phydev — pointer to the PHY device structure
• finished — pointer to a boolean set true if the test is complete

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so this function retrieves the current status of the OATC14 10Base-T1S PHY cable test. it reads the OATC14 HDD register to figure out whether the test results are valid and whether the test has finished. main character energy fr fr. 💖

if the test is complete, the function reports the cable test result via the ethtool cable test interface using ethnl_cable_test_result, and then clears the test control bit in the PHY register to reset the test state. slay. ✨

---

💀 RETURN 💀

0 on success, or a negative error code on failure (e.g. register read/write error). no cap, that error code can absolutely ruin the vibe. 😭
