hns_get_strings(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

🌸 NAME 🌸

okay so bestie, welcome to hns_get_strings(9) from the Kernel API Manual πŸ’–. The whole vibe is literally this: it returns a set of strings that describe the requested objects. That's the name, that's the job, no cap ✨.


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

here's the exact signature, bestie β€” copy it like your fave playlist πŸŽ€:

       void hns_get_strings (struct net_device *netdev , u32 stringset , u8
       *data );

the return type is void in the signature, and yes, that's exactly how it's written πŸ’….


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

the three args, and yes, they're all important:

  • netdev β€” net device. that's it, the net device 🫢.
  • stringset β€” string set ID. it's a u32 in the signature, just saying πŸ’–.
  • data β€” objects data. it's a u8 * in the signature, so pointer energy 🌟.
