🌸 hns_dsaf_fi...ntry_reverse(9) 🌸

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual 💅 this one's a kernel function page, and yes the title is literally truncated like that — hns_dsaf_fi...ntry_reverse(9) — the man page generator ran out of room and honestly? relatable. we move.

✨ NAME ✨

hns_dsaf_find_empty_mac_entry_reverse —

and no, the dash isn't me being mysterious, the description after it is genuinely blank in the source ok 😭 that's just how it be. the function name ate, the one-liner did not. periodt.

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

u16 hns_dsaf_find_empty_mac_entry_reverse (struct dsaf_device *dsaf_dev
);

that's the whole vibe check — one function, one argument, returns a u16. no cap.

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• dsaf_dev — a struct dsaf_device pointer, i.e. the dsa fabric device struct pointer. that's it, that's the argument, she's lowkey the main character here 🫶

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so what does she do? she searches the dsa fabric for a soft empty-entry from the end 🔥 like, the reverse direction — start at the back and work your way in. that's the entire plot, no twist, and honestly we stan a function with a clear purpose ✨
