💅 ixgbe_mii_bus_write_c22 — a Kernel API Manual moment (section 9, bestie)

okay so picture this: you're deep in the Intel ixgbe driver, the Kernel API Manual is open, and you need to write a clause 22 register. bestie, that's literally what this function is for. no cap. it's giving "small function, huge friend group" energy because look at that SEE ALSO list 😭

It lives in section 9 of the manual, so grab your fancy section-9 glasses 👑

✨ NAME ✨

ixgbe_mii_bus_write_c22 — Write a clause 22 register. that's it, that's the whole vibe 💖

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int ixgbe_mii_bus_write_c22 (struct mii_bus *bus , int addr , int regnum
, u16 val );

returns an int, takes four things, slays. periodt.

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • bus — pointer to mii_bus structure which points to our driver private. yes bestie, it's a pointer-to-a-struct-that-holds-the-driver-private, we love a chain of trust 💫
  • addr — address. that's the whole description. iconic minimalism honestly 🙈
  • regnum — register number. which register are we poking? this one 🎀
  • val — value to write. it's a u16, it's precious, treat it right 💜
