okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ — today's main character is ixd_fill_dsn, and honestly? she's a little icon. short page, big purpose 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

ixd_fill_dsn — get the serial number for the ixd device 🫶

like, that's it, that's her whole job. she fetches the serial number for the ixd device. no cap.

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void ixd_fill_dsn (struct ixd_adapter *adapter , char *buf );

look at that signature, so clean, so composed 💅 returns void, meaning she does not come back to you with gossip — she just does the thing and dips.

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• adapter — adapter to query 👑 this is the ixd adapter you're asking about, the one whose serial number you want.
• buf — storage buffer for the info request 🍓 this is where the answer goes, so bestie please make sure you actually brought a buffer for it to live in.

⚠️ heads up: buf is just described as the storage buffer for the info request — the page doesn't spell out a size, so don't go inventing one, mmkay? 🙈
