✨ iavf_ptp_init(9) ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — this is the iavf_ptp_init page and it's giving "small function, big responsibility" energy 💅

---

🎀 NAME 🎀

iavf_ptp_init — initialize PTP support if the capability was negotiated 🕰️✨

(yeah, that "if" is doing a lot of work, keep reading)

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void iavf_ptp_init (struct iavf_adapter *adapter );

literally that's it. no return value. it just does the thing 🫶

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• adapter — the private adapter structure. that's the whole vibe check for this one, bestie 💖

---

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

so the way this works: iavf_ptp_init initializes the PTP functionality, and it does that based on the capabilities that the PF has enabled for this VF. 👑

no cap — it's not out here guessing. it only sets up PTP stuff for what the PF actually said this VF is allowed to have. if the capability was negotiated, it initializes; that's the whole main character moment. ✨
