i40e_aq_alternate_read(9)

💖 NAME 💖

okay so this is the i40e_aq_alternate_read(9) page from the Kernel API Manual, bestie ✨

i40e_aq_alternate_read — that's literally the whole NAME line, no extra blurb in the source, and we are not inventing one 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int i40e_aq_alternate_read (struct i40e_hw *hw , u32 reg_addr0 , u32
       *reg_val0 , u32 reg_addr1 , u32 *reg_val1 );

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• hw — pointer to the hardware structure 🫶
• reg_addr0 — address of first dword to be read 👑
• reg_val0 — pointer for data read from reg_addr0 💖
• reg_addr1 — address of second dword to be read ⭐
• reg_val1 — pointer for data read from reg_addr1 🦋

---

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

Read one or two dwords from alternate structure, no cap 😌

Fields are indicated by reg_addr0 and reg_addr1 register numbers. If the reg_val1 pointer is not passed, then only the register at reg_addr0 is read — that's the vibe 💅
