ice_ptp_read_src_incval(9)

💖 ice_ptp_read_src_incval(9) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual, section 9 — yes we're in the kernel docs and yes it's giving extremely specific Intel NIC energy. This whole page is literally about one tiny function and honestly? She's iconic for it. 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

ice_ptp_read_src_incval — read the source timer's increment value. that's it. that's the whole job. she reads the incval and she hands it to you. 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

u64 ice_ptp_read_src_incval (struct ice_hw *hw );

like, you give her a pointer and she gives you back a u64. the exchange rate is unmatched. 🫶

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• hw — pointer to the HW struct, aka the whole hardware situation. hand her this and she knows what's up. 👑

---

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

So basically: this function reads the increment value of the source timer and returns it. that's the entire vibe. no cap, no hidden side quests, no little surprises — it does the read, it gives you the value back, periodt. 💖

the return type is u64 btw, so it's a nice chunky 64-bit number coming your way. 🧚

💀 SEE ALSO 💀

First things first, the kernel file where all this lives:

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

and now, bestie, brace yourself, because the reference list is long and I mean gorgeous-long, main-character-long. every single one of these is exactly as written, no edits, no merge, we do not skip a single icon: 🔥

ngl bestie, that reference list is a group chat you scroll for ten minutes and still find unread messages in. but every single name up there is real and exactly as the docs say — don't go renaming them, iykyk. 🙈

💜 and that's the page!! source is ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice, dated October 2026, and she's filed under ice_ptp_read_src_incval(9). mwah, go read your incval 💖✨🎀
