igb_ptp_sdp_init(9)
π igb_ptp_sdp_init β the Kernel API Manual page you didn't know you needed
Okay so bestie, gather round, because this one is a kernel API manual entry (yes, the section 9 kind, the developer-manpage girlies) and it's about one little utility function that sets up the SDP config structs. That's it. That's the whole vibe. Let's get into it β¨
π NAME π
igb_ptp_sdp_init β a utility function which inits the SDP config structs
Like, it's a utility function, no cap. Its entire job is initialising the SDP config structs. She's a helper. She's the backstage crew. She's not the main character, she's the main character's extremely competent bestie π«Ά
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
void igb_ptp_sdp_init (struct igb_adapter *adapter );
That's the whole signature, verbatim, don't come for me π
Note the void β she returns nothing, she just Does The Thing and leaves. Iconic behaviour, honestly.
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
adapterβ the board private structure. That's the one and only thing you hand her. Just the board's private structure, that's it, that's the whole shopping list ποΈ
π SEE ALSO π
The kernel file where all of this lives, fr fr:

iykyk β if you're in the igb PTP files, you're in the igb PTP files, and there are so many of them π
Lowkey a reminder: this page is short because the function is short. Not every manpage is a whole saga, and that's okay. Quality over quantity, bestie π
And that's a wrap! This page came to you straight out of ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/igb, dated October 2026, π mwah π go init those config structs, slay, periodt β¨π
