okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual corner where we're talking about igb_raise_eec_clk, and honestly it's giving tiny-but-mighty 💅. This is the page for the function that literally raises the EEPROM clock, no cap.

✨ NAME ✨

igb_raise_eec_clk — Raise EEPROM clock 🎀

💻 SYNOPSIS 💻

void igb_raise_eec_clk (struct e1000_hw *hw , u32 *eecd );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• hw — pointer to the HW structure, aka your hardware bestie 🫶
• eecd — pointer to the EEPROM, the little memory icon you're passing in 🍓

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

ok so this function has one job and it ate: it enables/raises the EEPROM clock bit. that's the whole main character moment ✨. no extra drama, no secret side quests — just raise that clock bit and go 💅. it's a void function too, so don't expect a little return-value treat back, bestie 😭.
