ppc440spe_d...t_byte_count(9)

💅 ppc440spe_d...t_byte_count(9) — from the Kernel API Manual ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the group chat for ppc440spe_d...t_byte_count(9) 🫶 (yes, the title itself is abbreviated with an ellipsis, that's just how the Kernel API Manual rolls, we don't question it 💀). This one lives in the kernel API manual and it's lowkey a one-job little icon.

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

ppc440spe_desc_set_byte_count — literally sets the number of data bytes involved into the operation. that's it, that's the whole gig ✨

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void ppc440spe_desc_set_byte_count (struct ppc440spe_adma_desc_slot
*desc , struct ppc440spe_adma_chan *chan , u32 byte_count );

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

ngl, the source material is giving absolutely nothing here, so I'm gonna be so fr with you instead of making stuff up:

• desc — -- undescribed -- 😭 the manual literally just says undescribed, so that's all we're getting.
• chan — also -- undescribed --. yes, two in a row. iconic in a tragic way 💀.
• byte_count — you guessed it: -- undescribed --. three for three, the docs said "no thoughts, head empty" 🙈.

bestie I am not gonna invent behaviour for these, because that would be lying to you and we don't do that here 💖. if the manual doesn't say it, I don't say it. periodt.
