ixgbe_clock_in_i2c_bit(9)

💅 ixgbe_clock_in_i2c_bit(9) — like, the Kernel API Manual page, bestie ✨

okay so picture this: you're deep in the kernel, in the Kernel API Manual, section 9, and you've stumbled onto ixgbe_clock_in_i2c_bit. Don't panic 🫶 she's honestly so chill. Let me introduce you.

🌸 NAME 🌸

ixgbe_clock_in_i2c_bit — clocks in one bit via I2C data/clock 🎀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int ixgbe_clock_in_i2c_bit (struct ixgbe_hw *hw , bool *data );

literally that's it. one call, one bit. iconic behavior 💅

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• hw — pointer to hardware structure. bestie, this is the hardware in question, she's the main character of this whole operation 👑
• data — read data value. this is where the bit you just clocked in gets handed back to you 💌

---

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

Clocks in one bit via I2C data/clock. that's the whole plot, no plot twists, no cap ⭐
