igb_check_f...k_media_swap(9)

💖 igb_check_for_link_media_swap(9) 💖

okay so bestie, this lil gem is from the Kernel API Manual, section 9, and it's the page for igb_check_for_link_media_swap. Her whole personality is checking which M88E1112 interface linked. Iconic behavior, honestly.

✨ NAME ✨

igb_check_for_link_media_swap — Check which M88E1112 interface linked. That's the whole name, and she ate.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

s32 igb_check_for_link_media_swap (struct e1000_hw *hw );

That's the signature, bestie — copy it exactly if you're typing it out.

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• hw — pointer to the HW structure. Hand her the hardware struct and she's set.

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

She polls the M88E1112 interfaces to see which interface achieved link. Lowkey detective mode: vibe-check the interfaces and find the one that actually linked. No cap, that's the assignment. slay
