ixgbe_setup_phy_link_e610(9)

✨ NAME ✨

okay so bestie, this is the ixgbe_setup_phy_link_e610(9) page from the Kernel API Manual, and the whole assignment is ixgbe_setup_phy_link_e610 — it sets up firmware-controlled PHYs. that's the name, that's the vibe, no cap 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

here's the signature, literally copy it exactly because we do not freestyle this:

int ixgbe_setup_phy_link_e610 (struct ixgbe_hw *hw );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• hw — pointer to hardware structure. yep, that's the whole argument, she's a simple icon 🫶

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

Set the parameters for the firmware-controlled PHYs. that's the assignment. firmware-controlled PHYs get their parameters set, and this function is the one doing it. slay ✨

⭐ RETURN ⭐

the exit code of the operation. that's the tea: it returns the exit code of the operation 🔥

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

the kernel file is right here, bestie:

• Kernel file: ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbe/ixgbe_e610.c
