linkmode_adv...i_t1_adv_m_t(9)

💅 NAME 💅

linkmode_adv_to_mii_t1_adv_m_t — and honestly bestie, the manpage just drops the name and leaves the dash hanging 😭 no one-liner, no nothing. The real tea is down in DESCRIPTION, so keep reading 🫶

Oh and for the record, this whole thing lives in the Kernel API Manual, section 9 — driver/kernel-adjacent vibes, iykyk 👑

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

u32 linkmode_adv_to_mii_t1_adv_m_t (unsigned long *advertising );

That's the whole call. One argument, returns a u32, no drama 💅

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• advertising — the linkmode advertisement settings 💖 this is the input, the raw material, the main character of the whole operation.

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so picture this: it's a small helper function 🧚 and all it does is one little translation job — it takes your linkmode advertisement settings and converts them into phy autonegotiation advertisements for the BASE-T1 Autonegotiation Advertisement [31:16] Register ⭐

That's it. That's the whole function. One direction, one register, no cap 🔥 Bit range [31:16] and everything — she's specific and she's correct 💜
