💖 i40e_is_fw_ver_ge(9) 💖

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, bestie — yes, that manual, the big one. sit down, hydrate, and let's get into it 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

i40e_is_fw_ver_ge — literally it's just the function name up there and nothing else, the original page gave us no description in the NAME section, so we're all just vibing with the name alone. iconic of them honestly 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

bool i40e_is_fw_ver_ge (struct i40e_hw *hw , u16 maj , u16 min );

look at her. returns a bool, takes an hw, takes a maj, takes a min. clean, simple, ate 🔥

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• hw — pointer to i40e_hw structure. that's the hardware hangout spot, the whole context of the thing 🎀
• maj — the API major value to compare. this is the big number u're checking against, no cap.
• min — the API minor value to compare. the lil number riding shotgun next to the major one 💫

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

Assert whether current firmware version is greater/equal than provided.

that's the whole thing, bestie. u hand it a major + minor pair, it tells u whether the firmware u're currently running is greater than or equal to what u asked about. yes/no. bool. a vibe check for firmware versions, fr fr 🌈

lowkey a truth-teller function — it asserts, it doesn't change anything, so don't go expecting it to mutate ur firmware. not its job, not its era 💀
