💖 NAME 💖

ice_ptp_write_init — bestie, this one sets the PHC time to a value you hand it. That's the whole vibe ✨

This little cutie lives in the Kernel API Manual, and honestly? She's giving "small function, big responsibility" 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int ice_ptp_write_init (struct ice_pf *pf , struct timespec64 *ts );

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so picture this: you've got a time value, right? And you want the PHC time to be that value. That's it. That's the function 💅

It sets the PHC time to the specified time provided in the timespec. No cap, that's literally her whole job 🔥

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

  • pf — the board private structure 🫶 like, the whole board's personal business, you know?
  • ts — the timespec structure that holds the new time value ⏰ this is the new time, she's holding it, she's ready
