ice_update_prof_masking(9)

✨ NAME ✨

okay so bestie, this is ice_update_prof_masking(9) from the Kernel API Manual, and its whole thing is literally set registers according to masking. that’s the function, no cap. 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

the whole signature, exactly as written, no edits:

int ice_update_prof_masking (struct ice_hw *hw , enum ice_block blk ,
u16 prof_id , u16 *masks );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

okay bestie, the arguments are literally a little quartet:

• hw — pointer to the HW struct. yes, the hardware struct itself. iconic.
• blk — hardware block. the block. periodt.
• prof_id — profile ID. it’s giving identifier energy, but make it hardware.
• masks — masks. that’s the whole sentence, bestie. plural. we love.

okay the SEE ALSO section is a whole group chat, and every single ref is invited. not me listing them all, but yes I am, because the facts stay. 💖
