πŸ’… mpi3mr_sync_timestamp ✨

Okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for mpi3mr_sync_timestamp β€” yes, the title really is the function name, and yes, it's giving "small function, big main character energy." Let's get into it 🫢


🌸 NAME 🌸

mpi3mr_sync_timestamp β€” Issue time stamp sync request ⏰✨


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int mpi3mr_sync_timestamp (struct mpi3mr_ioc *mrioc );

πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • mrioc β€” Adapter reference πŸ’– (basically your little handle to the adapter, no cap)

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

So what does this actually do? It issues an IO unit control MPI request to synchronize the firmware timestamp with host time πŸ•πŸ’«. That's the whole vibe β€” it's the "hey firmware, match your clock to the host's clock" request. Simple, iconic, does exactly what it says on the tin. Periodt.


πŸ”₯ RETURN πŸ”₯

  • 0 on success πŸŽ‰
  • non-zero on failure 😭

That's it. Zero means slay, anything else means something went sideways.
