ice_op_pci_match_record(9)

💖 ice_op_pci_match_record — bestie, does this PCI device match the record? 💅

okay so real talk, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual and it's literally called ice_op_pci_match_record(9) and it's lowkey the vibe check for PCI devices. let's get into it 🫶

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bool ice_op_pci_match_record (struct pldmfw *context , struct
pldmfw_record *record );

like, it takes two things and gives you back a bool. periodt ✨

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• context — the PLDM fw update structure, she's the whole setup, the main character of the firmware-update world 👑
• record — the list of records extracted from the PLDM image, aka the receipts we're checking against 💅

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so the whole point, bestie: it determines if the PCI device associated with this device matches the record data provided. like, does this device belong with this record or not, iykyk 🧚

how does she do it? she searches the descriptor TLVs and extracts the relevant descriptor data into a pldm_pci_record_id. then that gets compared against the PCI device ID information. no cap, that's the whole move 💖

---

🌸 RETURN 🌸

• true if the device matches the record ✨
• false otherwise 💀
