ice_init_pkg_regs(9)

💅 ice_init_pkg_regs(9) — Kernel API Manual, bestie edition

okay so first things first: this page lives in the Kernel API Manual, section 9, and its whole name is literally ice_init_pkg_regs(9). No cap. Let's get into it 💖

---

✨ NAME ✨

ice_init_pkg_regs — initialize additional package registers 🎀

That's it. That's the whole vibe. It sets up the extra package registers, and the manpage is not about to elaborate further. Iconic, honestly.

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void ice_init_pkg_regs (struct ice_hw *hw );

yes bestie, it returns void — nothing comes back, it just does the thing 🌸

---

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

• hw — pointer to the hardware structure 💅 this is the one and only thing you hand it, and it's your gateway to the hardware. one argument, zero drama.

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

The kernel file this all lives in is ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_ddp.c — go read it, it's the main character 🌈
