pm8001_get_e...phy_settings(9)

💖 pm8001_get_external_phy_settings — like, the whole vibe 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the pm8001_get_e...phy_settings(9) page (yes that's the manual name, they really said "let's abbreviate the middle, it's fine" 😭). This is a kernel API manual entry, and it's literally about scooping up the external PHY settings. No cap.

---

✨ NAME ✨

pm8001_get_external_phy_settings — grabs the external PHY settings for you 🫶 that's the whole job, she's an icon, she's a getter.

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void pm8001_get_external_phy_settings (struct pm8001_hba_info *pm8001_ha
, struct pm8001_mpi3_phy_pg_trx_config *phycfg );

notice she returns void — she's not here to give you a status report, she's here to populate and ghost 💅

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• pm8001_ha — our adapter 👑 yeah, the HBA itself, the main character, the struct pm8001_hba_info * in question.
• phycfg — the PHY config page to populate 🌈 that's a struct pm8001_mpi3_phy_pg_trx_config * and it's giving "empty cup, please fill me", which is exactly what she does.

fr fr that's it — two args, zero drama, no return value to check. so clean ✨
