🌸 NAME 🌸

liquidio_vf_probe — PCI probe handler 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to liquidio_vf_probe(9) from the Kernel API Manual. this page is short, iconic, and here to explain the PCI probe handler without making your brain do a whole bluescreen. ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int liquidio_vf_probe (struct pci_dev *pdev , const struct pci_device_id *ent );

the way this signature is giving kernel C realness 🫶 — it returns an int and takes struct pci_dev *pdev plus const struct pci_device_id *ent.

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• pdev — the PCI device structure. literally the PCI device structure, bestie. 💅
• ent — unused. yeah, unused. not me staring at it like 👀💀
