pci_ext_cfg_avail(9)

💻 pci_ext_cfg_avail(9) — Kernel API Manual 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual, specifically the pci_ext_cfg_avail page. This one is a tiny little yes/no vibe check for PCI config space, and it’s giving short but important. Let’s get into it, no cap. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

pci_ext_cfg_avail — can we access extended PCI config space? 💅

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

int pci_ext_cfg_avail (void );

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• void — no arguments. Zero. None. The function is lowkey self-sufficient, bestie. 🫶

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

It returns 1 if we can access PCI extended config space (offsets greater than 0xff). That’s the whole mood. 💖

This is the default implementation. Architecture implementations can override this. So like, the baseline behavior is here, but arch code can absolutely step in and do its own thing. 👑

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

Kernel file: ./drivers/pci/pci.c — that’s the source location, iykyk. 🫶
