ice_ptp_init_phc_e810(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 ice_ptp_init_phc_e810 — the E810 glow-up ritual

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, section 9, for ice_ptp_init_phc_e810. it's short, it's sweet, and it's giving "one very specific job, done very specifically." 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

ice_ptp_init_phc_e810 — bestie, this is the one that does the E810-specific PHC initialization. literally its whole personality.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int ice_ptp_init_phc_e810 (struct ice_hw *hw );

that's it. that's the whole vibe. one function, one pointer, no drama. 💜

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • hw — pointer to the HW struct. that's the one and only thing you hand it. 🫶

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

okay so real talk: this function performs the E810-specific PTP hardware clock initialization steps. no cap, that's the assignment. it's the E810 edition of getting the PHC set up — the specific steps for this specific chip, and nothing else. main character energy, but make it scoped. ✨

⭐ RETURN ⭐

  • 0 on success — slayed. 💅
  • other error codes when it failed to initialize TimeSync — 😭 not the TimeSync failing on us.

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

like, a truly iconic amount of cross-references. don't skip them, bestie, they're all here, iykyk. 🔥

first, the file itself lives in the kernel:

  • ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_ptp_hw.c

and now the whole friend group:

bestie there are so many of them and yes you're gonna read them all. that's the whole point of SEE ALSO. 🍓

and that's the page!! 🧚 this little cutie came out of ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice back in October 2026, live from the Kernel API Manual — bye bestie, go initialize some clocks 💖✨🎀
