💅 iavf_pdev_to_adapter(9) — the Kernel API Manual page you didn't know you needed ✨

okay so real talk, this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual, and it's a tiny little baby function but it's lowkey iconic. it does exactly one thing and it does it flawlessly, which is honestly main character energy. let's get into it bestie 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

iavf_pdev_to_adapter — go from pci_dev to adapter

that's it. that's the whole vibe. you hand it a pci_dev and it hands you back the adapter. matching game, but make it kernel. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

struct iavf_adapter * iavf_pdev_to_adapter (struct pci_dev *pdev );

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋
