💖 hns_get_sset_count(9) — a Kernel API Manual moment 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ today's main character is hns_get_sset_count, and honestly? she's short, she's sweet, she does exactly one thing. let's get into it 🎀

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

hns_get_sset_count — literally just gets the string set count that nic_get_strings hands back 🫶 that's the whole vibe.

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int hns_get_sset_count (struct net_device *netdev , int stringset );

no cap, that's the entire signature. copy it exactly, don't get cute with it 💅

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• netdev — the net device, aka the whole point of the operation, the icon, the moment 👑
• stringset — the string set index. and listen, the mapping is not vibes-based, it's exact:
  • 0 → self test string
  • 1 → statistics string

that's it. two integers of destiny, iykyk 🌈

---

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

Return string set count.

like... that's the description. that's the whole thing. she returns the count of the string set. no plot twist, no lore, no dramatic backstory — just a return value and a dream 😭 and honestly? respect. not every function needs a trilogy 🍓
