pmcraid_reset_reload(9)

okay bestie, buckle up — this is the Kernel API Manual page for pmcraid_reset_reload(9), and it’s giving “kernel-driver lore but make it group chat” 💅✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

pmcraid_reset_reload — utility routine for doing IOA reset either to bringup or bringdown IOA

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

       int pmcraid_reset_reload (struct pmcraid_instance *pinstance , u8
       shutdown_type , u8 target_state );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• pinstance — pointer adapter instance structure
• shutdown_type — shutdown type to be used NONE, NORMAL or ABRREV (yes, bestie, it really says ABRREV — copying it exactly, no cap 💀)
• target_state — expected target state after reset

🔥 NOTE 🔥

okay this part is important, so listen up 🫶 This command initiates reset and waits for its completion. Hence this should not be called from isr/timer/tasklet functions (timeout handlers, error response handlers and interrupt handlers).

Return Value: 1 in case ioa_state is not target_state, 0 otherwise.
