💅 pm8001_get_phy_mask(9) — a Kernel API Manual moment

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for pm8001_get_phy_mask ✨ this one's short and sweet, but it's important, iykyk.

🎀 NAME 🎀

pm8001_get_phy_mask — literally grabs the mask that tells you whether a PHY is int or ext 💖 (internal or external, if you were wondering — because of course you were 🫶)

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void pm8001_get_phy_mask (struct pm8001_hba_info *pm8001_ha , int
*phymask );

yep, that's it. no return value, it's giving "void and unbothered" energy 💅

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• pm8001_ha — our adapter 🥰 that's it, that's the description. she's our adapter, the main character of this whole file ngl.
• phymask — The PHY mask 👑 this is the int * where the answer goes.
