igb_sgmii_active_82575(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

🌸 NAME 🌸

Okay so welcome to the igb_sgmii_active_82575(9) page from the Kernel API Manual, bestie. The function is igb_sgmii_active_82575 — Return sgmii state. That's the whole name vibe. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bool igb_sgmii_active_82575 (struct e1000_hw *hw );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • hw — pointer to the HW structure. That's the one and only arg, and it's literally just pointing at the hardware struct. 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So the 82575 silicon has a serialized gigabit media independent interface (sgmii) which can be enabled for use in the embedded applications. Iconic little interface situation, no cap.

This function is not doing the absolute most: it simply returns the current state of the sgmii interface. That's it. That's the whole job. Return the state, slay, exit. ✨
