💖 pm8001_chip_init(9) 💖

okay so first things first, bestie: this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's all about pm8001_chip_init. buckle up, it's giving "one function to rule them all" energy 👑

---

✨ NAME ✨

pm8001_chip_init — the main init function that initializes the whole PM8001 chip. like, not just a little corner of it. the entire chip. main character behavior fr fr 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int pm8001_chip_init (struct pm8001_hba_info *pm8001_ha );

that's it. that's the whole call. one function, one arg, and it goes off to set up everything 🔥

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• pm8001_ha — our hba card information 🫶 literally the whole vibe of the card lives in this struct, and we're handing it over so the init can do its thing.

ngl there's no RETURN VALUE section on this page, so don't come for me asking what the int gives back — the original doesn't say, and I'm not out here making things up 🙈

okay that's the page!! this one came straight out of ./drivers/scsi/pm8001, dated October 2026, and it's pm8001_chip_init(9) — stan the chip init, periodt 🧚💜🌈
