ngbe_init_type_code(9)
π ngbe_init_type_code(9) β the kernel API manual, but make it cute β¨
okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual about ngbe_init_type_code(9), and honestly? it's a short one. one function, one argument, a whole lot of friends in SEE ALSO. let's get into it π«Ά
πΈ NAME πΈ
ngbe_init_type_code β initialize the shared code β¨
like, that's the whole job. it initializes the shared code. iconic behaviour tbh π
π SYNOPSIS π
void ngbe_init_type_code (struct wx *wx );
that's it. that's the whole vibe check. a void return (so it gives you nothing back, and that's fine, we love a low-maintenance function β¨) and exactly one argument. no cap.
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
wxβ pointer to hardware structure π₯οΈ this is your hardware struct bestie, the thing you're handing over so the function has something to actually work with. it's a pointer, so obviously we're passing it by reference, periodt.
π SEE ALSO π
okay this is where the party's at, because this page does NOT come alone. first up, the kernel file:
- Kernel file
./drivers/net/ethernet/wangxun/ngbe/ngbe_main.cπ
and then the whole group chat of related functions, all in section (9):
ngbe_sw_init(9)ngbe_service_task(9)ngbe_irq_enable(9)ngbe_intr(9)ngbe_request_msix_irqs(9)ngbe_request_irq(9)ngbe_open(9)ngbe_close(9)ngbe_setup_tc(9)ngbe_probe(9)ngbe_remove(9)
like, that's a whole squad π go read them, iykyk π
π friendly reminder that this is literally all the page gives us β one init function and its people. no hidden options, no secret flags, no environment variables. if you wanted drama you're gonna have to go read ngbe_main.c yourself fr fr π
and that's the page!! slay π sign-off time: this cutie comes to you from ./drivers/net/ethernet/wangxun... and it's dated October 2026 π bye bestie, go initialize some shared code π§ββοΈ
