📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 ice_ptp_disable_timestamp_mode — from the Kernel API Manual, bestie ✨

okay so picture this: it's a kernel API manual page, it's about the ice driver, and the star of the show is ice_ptp_disable_timestamp_mode. yes that's a long name. no we're not abbreviating it. it's giving "my function name is a whole sentence" and honestly? iconic. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

ice_ptp_disable_timestamp_mode — literally just turns off the current timestamp mode. that's it. that's the whole job. 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void ice_ptp_disable_timestamp_mode (struct ice_pf *pf );

like, no return value, nothing to check, she just goes in and does the thing. void queens rise 🫶

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • pf — the board private structure. your whole little board's personal business, handed over so she can do her thing. 💖

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so here's when this gets called, and it's lowkey two whole moods:

  • during preparation for reset — she temporarily disables timestamping on the device. key word temporarily, she's not being dramatic, she's coming back.
  • during remove — she disables timestamping while the driver resources are getting cleaned up. packing up, lights off, timestamping not invited to the afterparty. 🔥

no cap, that's the entire description. she's a two-job function and she does both of them.
