💖 ixgbe_read_cs4227 💖

okay bestie, so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual and it's about one (1) tiny little function that reads a CS4227 register ✨ she's small, she's specific, she's got forty-two thousand friends in SEE ALSO, we love a social butterfly 🦋

🌸 NAME 🌸

ixgbe_read_cs4227 — read one CS4227 register, that's it, that's the whole vibe 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int ixgbe_read_cs4227 (struct ixgbe_hw *hw , u16 reg , u16 *value );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • hw — pointer to hardware structure 🫶 (the whole hardware situation, hand it over)
  • reg — register number to write 👀 and yes bestie, that's genuinely what the page says — "to write" — on the read function 😭 not me questioning it, I'm just the messenger, keeping it exactly as documented fr fr
  • value — pointer to receive value read 💖 she gets filled in with whatever came back, she's the output girlie

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

Returns status code ⭐ that's literally the description, no cap. She goes and reads the register, and then she tells you how it went by way of a status code. Iconic behaviour, honestly 🌈

like I said. social butterfly 🦋💜

mwah, that's the page 💋 this little icon came out of ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i... (that's the source line, truncated just like the original, no I will not be finishing the path for you, that's the tea ☕), October 2026 energy, and the whole thing is filed under ixgbe_read_cs4227(9) in the Kernel API Manual 🎀 go read some registers bestie, slay ✨
