igb_ptp_stop(9)

💅 igb_ptp_stop(9) 💅

okay so this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual, and bestie, it's a short one but it's lowkey important, so let's get into it 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

igb_ptp_stop — literally just: disable the PTP device and stop the overflow check. that's the whole vibe. no cap. 🛑

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void igb_ptp_stop (struct igb_adapter *adapter );

it returns void, so like… nothing comes back. it just does the thing and dips. main character energy honestly 👑

---

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

• adapter — the board's private structure 💖 that's it, that's the one (1) argument. she's low maintenance, we love her.

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so what does she actually do?? two things, and she does them well:

• stops the PTP support — like, turning it off off 🛑
• cancels the delayed work — the delayed work is not coming, she cancelled it, it's not happening 💀

that's genuinely the entire description. short queen. iykyk ✨

fr fr if you're poking at PTP in the igb driver, you're gonna meet all of these eventually. consider this your group chat invite 💌
