💖 igb_release_nvm_82575(9) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — this is the page for igb_release_nvm_82575, and it's literally the "let go of the EEPROM" moment. 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

igb_release_nvm_82575 — Release exclusive access to EEPROM. periodt. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void igb_release_nvm_82575 (struct e1000_hw *hw );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• hw — pointer to the HW structure 🫶 like, it's the hardware struct, bestie.

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

okay so here's the tea: this function stops any current commands to the EEPROM and clears the EEPROM request bit, then releases the semaphores acquired. that's it. no cap. ✨

bestie this is the release side of the acquire/release situation — it's giving "cleanup era" 🧚
