ice_check_media_subtask(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💖 ice_check_media_subtask(9) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the ice_check_media_subtask(9) page — it's from the Kernel API Manual and it's honestly a tiny lil baby function but she's important, so let's get into it ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

ice_check_media_subtask — literally just: check for media. that's the whole vibe check 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void ice_check_media_subtask (struct ice_pf *pf );

no return value, she just does her thing and leaves, periodt 💅

🍓 ARGUMENTS 🍓

  • pf — pointer to the PF struct 🫶 that's it, that's the only arg, we love a low-maintenance icon.

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

so here's the tea ☕ — if media is available, then:

  • it initializes the PHY user configuration, but only if it hasn't already been done (if it's not been, as the page says 🙈)
  • and it configures the PHY, but only if the interface is up

that's the whole thing. no cap, that's the entire behavior. main character energy in like four lines 😭💖

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

the source lives in the Kernel file ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_main.c — go say hi to her 💜
