okay so bestie, we're in the Kernel API Manual today and the star of the show is qed_ll2_acquire_connection. No cap, this one's a baddie.

🌸 NAME 🌸

qed_ll2_acquire_connection — it allocates resources, and it starts the rx & tx queues pair (if relevant, iykyk). It also hands you back the connection handler as an output parameter. Slay.

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

int qed_ll2_acquire_connection (void *cxt , struct qed_ll2_acquire_data *data );

like, it returns an int, takes two things, that's the whole vibe. 💖

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• cxt — a pointer to the hw-function. It's opaque to some, so don't come for it, okay? 🙈

⭐ RETURN ⭐

Int. fr fr. that's it, that's the return. 💀
