✨ i40e_aq_read_nvm ✨

okay bestie, so this page lives in the kernel API manual — it's i40e_aq_read_nvm(9), and it's literally the little function that goes "hey admin queue, be a doll and read me some NVM?" 🫶

💖 NAME 💖

i40e_aq_read_nvm — the read-the-NVM-via-admin-queue girlie 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int i40e_aq_read_nvm (struct i40e_hw *hw , u8 module_pointer , u32
offset , u16 length , void *data , bool last_command , struct
i40e_asq_cmd_details *cmd_details );

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• hw — pointer to the hw struct, obvi. your main character 🎀
• module_pointer — module pointer location in words from the NVM beginning ✨
• offset — byte offset from the module beginning, yes bytes, not words, don't mix them up ngl
• length — length of the section to be read (in bytes from the offset) 📏
• data — command buffer (size [bytes] = length), so like, make it big enough bestie 😭
• last_command — tells if this is the last command in a series, iykyk 🫶
• cmd_details — pointer to command details structure or NULL, dealer's choice 💀

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

Read the NVM using the admin queue commands. that's it, that's the vibe ✨ literally just reading the NVM through the admin queue, and she ate 🔥
