mega_internal_command(9)

💅 mega_internal_command(9)

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ — this is the page for mega_internal_command, and honestly it's giving "small function, big responsibilities" energy. let's get into it 🫶

---

🌸 NAME

mega_internal_command — ...and that's literally it, the NAME section on this one is just the name, no little description blurb. iconic minimalism tbh 💀 (we still love her)

---

✨ SYNOPSIS

int mega_internal_command (adapter_t *adapter , megacmd_t *mc ,
mega_passthru *pthru );

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS

• adapter — pointer to our soft state 💖 yeah she needs the adapter, it's her home base, her little home screen
• mc — the mailbox command 👑 this is the actual command you're firing off
• pthru — Passthru structure for DCDB commands 🦋 only the DCDB passthru girlies need to worry about this one

---

🔥 DESCRIPTION

so the whole vibe of this function is: issue the internal commands in interrupt mode ⚡ like, that's the job, that's the whole assignment, and she ate.

and the last argument? that's pthru, and it's the address of the passthru structure — but only if the command you're about to fire is a passthru command. iykyk 💅 otherwise it's a different story (see the NOTE, bestie, i gotchu)

---

💀 NOTE

parameter 'pthru' is null for non-passthru commands. no cap. if it's not a passthru command, pass null and move on 🙈
