✨ get_ss_info_...s_info_table ✨

okay so bestie, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual (section 9, kernel-space vibes only πŸ’…) and it's literally all about pulling spread spectrum info out of your VBIOS. no cap, it's niche but it's iconic.


🌸 NAME 🌸

get_ss_info_from_ss_info_table β€” like, that's the whole name, that's the moment, that's the function πŸŽ€


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

enum bp_result get_ss_info_from_ss_info_table (struct bios_parser *bp ,
uint32_t id , struct spread_spectrum_info *ss_info );

three args, one result code, zero drama. slay.


πŸ’– ARGUMENTS πŸ’–

  • bp β€” pointer to the Bios parser. your main character struct fr fr 🫢
  • id β€” the spread spectrum id. this is how you tell it which entry you're obsessed with.
  • ss_info β€” the spread spectrum information structure. this is where the tea gets poured β˜•βœ¨

πŸ‘‘ DESCRIPTION πŸ‘‘

so here's the vibe: this pulls spread spectrum information out of the SS_Info table, straight from the VBIOS. very "i know a guy" energy.

and here's the little plot twist πŸ™ˆ β€” if the pointer to info is NULL, then instead of filling anything in, it lets the caller know how many entries match that id in the SS_Info table. it's giving "just tell me the count, i'm not ready for the details yet."

for real though, there should not be more than 1 entry match. one. single. match. that's it. anything more is a red flag bestie πŸ’€


⭐ RETURN ⭐

Bios parser result code. that's the whole answer, and honestly? it ate. πŸ”₯
