💅 hw_clr_wol_pme_status(9) — kernel API manual, but make it make sense

Okay bestie, so this one is from the hw_clr_wol_pme_status(9) manual page (kernel API manual, yeah, we're in the big leagues now) and honestly? It's short, it's sweet, it's giving "tiny function, very specific job" energy. Let's get into it 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

hw_clr_wol_pme_status — clear PMEN pin 🔌

Like, that's the whole name. It clears the PMEN pin. No cap, that's the vibe.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void hw_clr_wol_pme_status (struct ksz_hw *hw );

She takes exactly one argument, returns absolutely nothing (void, my beloved), and yes the spacing in that signature is exactly how the original has it — I'm not touching it, that's the law 💅

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • hw — the hardware instance 💖 literally just the hardware instance. That's it. That's the whole argument. She's the star of the show, the main character, the thing you're operating on.

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

Okay so here's the tea, bestie: this routine is used to clear PME_Status so that the PMEN pin gets deasserted ✨

That's the entire description. Short and iconic. You call her, PME_Status gets cleared, the PMEN pin stops being asserted. Periodt. 🎀

fr fr that's all the original says — no extra behaviour, no hidden tricks. Don't go reading into it 🙈

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

Okay this section is long, like "she ate and left no crumbs" long, so buckle up 🍓 — every single one of these is as-is, (9) and all:

Kernel file ./drivers/net/ethernet/micrel/ksz884x.c

Like, she really said "you want cross-references? I'll give you cross-references" 💀 but every single one matters if you're deep in this driver, iykyk.

✨ and that's the whole page, bestie ✨ this little cutie lives over in ./drivers/net/ethernet/micrel, and the manual itself is dated October 2026 — consider that your cute little sign-off, mwah 💜🎀
