hw_event_sata_phy_up(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 hw_event_sata_phy_up(9) — like, the Kernel API Manual edition 🎀

okay bestie, buckle up, because this one is a tiny little function with a very big job: it's the moment the firmware slides into your DMs to be like "hey girl, a SATA phy just came up." iconic behavior, honestly. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

hw_event_sata_phy_up — FW tells me a SATA phy up event.

(no cap, that's the whole vibe: the firmware is the one doing the telling, and we're just here to hear it 💖)

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void hw_event_sata_phy_up (struct pm8001_hba_info *pm8001_ha , void
*piomb );

she takes two things and returns absolutely nothing (void), because sometimes the real flex is just showing up and doing the work 💅

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

  • pm8001_ha — our hba card information 🫶 this is the main character: it's the struct that knows everything about the host bus adapter we're dealing with.
  • piomb — IO message buffer 📨 literally the buffer where the IO message is hanging out. that's it, that's the whole thing.

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

bestie the cross-reference list here is long and honestly kind of stunning. every single one of these is in the (9) club, so go read them when you're done here 🌈
