✨ NAME ✨

ipr_store_adapter_state — Change adapter state. That's the whole name, bestie, and yes this is the ipr_store_adapter_state(9) page from the Kernel API Manual 💖

💖 SYNOPSIS 💖

okay so the signature is literally right here, no cap:

ssize_t ipr_store_adapter_state (struct device *dev , struct
       device_attribute *attr , const char *buf , size_t count );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • dev — device struct. The device struct in question, slay.
  • attr — device attribute (unused). The page says unused, so we're not gonna pretend it does anything 💀
  • buf — buffer. Yep, a buffer.
  • count — buffer size. The size of that buffer, periodt.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so the whole vibe of this function is: it will change the adapter's state. That's it. That's the main character energy of this page ✨

Return value: count on success / other on failure. So success gives you count, and failure gives you other — that's literally what the page says, no extra lore 🫶
