ixgbe_i2c_stop(9)

Welcome to the ixgbe_i2c_stop(9) manual page, bestie! Straight from the Kernel API Manual, and it's literally about setting the I2C stop condition. Slay. 💅

✨ NAME ✨

ixgbe_i2c_stop — sets the I2C stop condition. That's the whole vibe. Periodt. 💖

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

void ixgbe_i2c_stop (struct ixgbe_hw *hw );

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• hw — pointer to hardware structure. Like, it's pointing at your hardware structure. No cap. 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so here's the tea: this function sets the I2C stop condition. And what does that mean? It's the Low -> High on SDA while SCL is High moment. You know, the classic. It's giving "last text before you go to sleep" energy. 😭

It also disables bit-bang mode and negates data output enable on X550 hardware. That X550 part? Highkey important, don't sleep on it. 🔥

Vibe check: SDA goes from Low to High while SCL is High. That's the stop condition. Iconic. 💅
