✨ intel_vgpu_emulate_cfg_read ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual πŸ’– this one's literally called intel_vgpu_emulate_cfg_read and it does exactly what it says on the tin β€” it emulates a vGPU configuration space read. iconic behaviour, no notes πŸŽ€


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int intel_vgpu_emulate_cfg_read (struct intel_vgpu *vgpu , unsigned int
offset , void *p_data , unsigned int bytes );

like, that's the whole vibe. four args, one int coming back at you πŸ¦‹


πŸ’… ARGUMENTS πŸ’…

  • vgpu β€” the target vgpu, aka the main character of this whole operation πŸ‘‘
  • offset β€” the offset, yes girl that's the one, literally the offset πŸ“
  • p_data β€” return data ptr, this is where the read data lands, she's the destination πŸ’Œ
  • bytes β€” number of bytes to read, so like, how much we're grabbing πŸ”₯

⭐ RETURN ⭐

Zero on success πŸŽ‰ β€” and a negative error code if it failed 😭 so yeah, check your return value, bestie, fr fr.
