💅 ice_dpll_init_pins — Kernel API Manual 🎀

Okay bestie, welcome to the ice_dpll_init_pins(9) page — yes, the Kernel API Manual is giving main character energy today. This is the little setup moment where pins get initialized and registered into dplls, and we are going to read it together like the organized queens we are. 💖

🌸 NAME 🌸

ice_dpll_init_pins — init pins and register pins with a dplls

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int ice_dpll_init_pins (struct ice_pf *pf , bool cgu );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • pf — board private structure
  • cgu — if cgu is present and controlled by this NIC

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So the whole vibe here is: initialize directly connected pf's pins within pf's dplls in a Linux dpll subsystem. That's it, that's the assignment. Pin init + registration business, no cap. ✨

⭐ RETURN ⭐

  • 0 — success
  • negative — initialization failure reason
If it comes back negative, that negative value is carrying the initialization failure reason, so don't ignore it, bestie. 🙈
