pci_pwrctrl_...ce_set_ready(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… NAME πŸ’…

pci_pwrctrl_device_set_ready β€” okay so this is the little function that taps the pwrctrl subsystem on the shoulder and is like "bestie, the PCI device is powered-up and ready to be detected" ✨


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

int pci_pwrctrl_device_set_ready (struct pci_pwrctrl *pwrctrl );

πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • pwrctrl β€” the PCI power control data, aka the whole vibe of this device's power situation πŸ’œ

🌸 RETURN 🌸

It hands you back 0 on success, or a negative error number if something went off the rails 😭 (negative = not slaying, basically).


⭐ NOTE ⭐

Heads up bestie, this one's important πŸ‘‘

So like, getting a 0 back does not mean the device was detected. Not even close. It means the bus rescan was successfully started β€” that's it, that's the whole flex. The device will get bound to its PCI driver asynchronously, so it's giving main character energy doing its own thing on its own timeline, and you just gotta trust the process 🫢
