ixgbe_read_ee_aci_e610(9)

💖 NAME 💖

okay bestie, you're looking at the page for ixgbe_read_ee_aci_e610(9) from the Kernel API Manual — manual name folded in near the top, exactly as requested. ✨

• ixgbe_read_ee_aci_e610 — Read EEPROM word using the admin command. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

the signature is literally:

int ixgbe_read_ee_aci_e610 (struct ixgbe_hw *hw , u16 offset , u16 *data );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• hw — pointer to hardware structure 🫶
• offset — offset of word in the EEPROM to read 🙈
• data — word read from the EEPROM 💖

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so the tea is: this reads a 16 bit word from the EEPROM using the ACI. If the EEPROM params are not initialized, it initializes them before proceeding with reading. It acquires and then releases the NVM ownership. No cap, that's the whole flow. 💅

🌸 RETURN 🌸

the exit code of the operation. that's it, that's the return vibe. 😭
