netdev_get_eeprom(9)

bestie, this is netdev_get_eeprom(9) from the Kernel API Manual — yes, the manual name is folded in right here 🫶✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

netdev_get_eeprom — get EEPROM data 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int netdev_get_eeprom (struct net_device *dev , struct ethtool_eeprom
       *eeprom , u8 *data );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• dev — the network device, aka the main character here.
• eeprom — the Ethtool EEPROM data structure.
• data — the buffer where the EEPROM data gets stored.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so netdev_get_eeprom() dumps the EEPROM data into the buffer you provide. That's the whole vibe 💅

It returns 0 if successful; otherwise you get an error code. no cap, that's the return situation 😭
