πŸ’… igc_get_auto_rd_done(9) β€” like, the Kernel API Manual page, bestie πŸŽ€

okay so this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual and it's lowkey one of those tiny little helpers that keeps the whole igc driver from acting up πŸ’– it is short, it is iconic, and yes we are gonna go through every single crumb of it together ✨


✨ NAME ✨

igc_get_auto_rd_done β€” checks whether the auto read finished, no cap 🫢


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

s32 igc_get_auto_rd_done (struct igc_hw *hw );

that's it. that's the whole signature. she's cute, she's compact, she returns an s32 and she takes exactly one pointer πŸ’…


🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • hw β€” pointer to the struct igc_hw structure. literally the hardware struct, hand it over and let her look πŸ‘€

πŸ’œ DESCRIPTION πŸ’œ

so what does she actually do? she checks the EEPROM for the Auto Read done bit ⭐ that's the whole vibe. one job, done slayfully πŸ‘‘

ngl this one is a building block β€” the rest of the init path leans on knowing whether that auto read has landed yet, iykyk 🧚

πŸ“ reminder bestie: the (9) means these are kernel-internal functions, not stuff you call from your little userspace program, okay? πŸ’–
