📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 ibmvtpm_crq_get_version 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ — this is the page for ibmvtpm_crq_get_version, and honestly? she's a little niche icon but she does her one job flawlessly 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

ibmvtpm_crq_get_version — sends a CRQ request to get the vtpm version.

⚠️ and like, heads up bestie, because this trips people up: this is the vtpm version, not the tpm version. yes. two different things. read that again 😭 the manpage says it twice for a reason, so i'm saying it twice too. periodt. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int ibmvtpm_crq_get_version (struct ibmvtpm_dev *ibmvtpm );

like, that's it. one argument. clean. minimal. she ate. 🫶

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • ibmvtpm — the vtpm device struct 🎀 (yes, that's the whole description. yes, you still need it. it's the vtpm device struct, bestie, what more do you want from her)

⭐ RETURN ⭐

  • 0 on success 🌈 — slay, we love a zero
  • Non-zero on failure 💀 — not slay, but at least you know

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

kernel file ./drivers/char/tpm/tpm_ibmvtpm.c — the mothership, the main character energy source 🧚

and so many siblings, fr fr, look at this family reunion:

that's nineteen besties plus the kernel file. whole squad. iykyk 💜

anyway that's the whole page — short and sweet, kind of giving minimal-effort-but-make-it-iconic 🌸 she lives in ./drivers/char/tpm, and this edition is dated October 2026. mwah, go get that vtpm version bestie 💖🎀🦋
