💫 pm8001_mpi_msg_free_get(9) 💫

okay so bestie, we're in the Kernel API Manual today (yes, that manual, the big one 🫶) and the star of the show is pm8001_mpi_msg_free_get — no cap, she's a little function with a big job. Let's get into it ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

pm8001_mpi_msg_free_get — grab a free message buffer for the transfer inbound queue. that's it, that's the whole vibe 💅

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int pm8001_mpi_msg_free_get (struct inbound_queue_table *circularQ , u16
messageSize , void **messagePtr );

literally just three args, she's lowkey chill like that 😌

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• circularQ — the inbound queue we wanna transfer to the HBA. like, the destination, the whole point, the main character of this call 👑
• messageSize — the message size of this transfer. ngl, normally it's 64 bytes, so if you're doing something else... bestie, why 🙈
• messagePtr — the pointer to the message. that's the spot where the message lives, iconic behavior honestly ✨
