💅 qed_mcp_get_esl_status(9) — Kernel API Manual ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the <pink>Kernel API Manual</pink> page for qed_mcp_get_esl_status — yes that name is a mouthful, yes it's iconic, we move. 🎀 This one is short and sweet: it's literally just asking the hardware "hey, is enhanced system lockdown on or what?" and reporting back. Let me walk you through it. 🦋

🌸 NAME 🌸

qed_mcp_get_esl_status — Get enhanced system lockdown status 💅 (yes, ESL = enhanced system lockdown, iykyk)

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int qed_mcp_get_esl_status (struct qed_hwfn *p_hwfn , struct qed_ptt
* p_ptt , bool *active );

like, three args in, an int out, no cap. 🫶

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • p_hwfn — the hw function pointer. your main character struct, the one that knows everything about the hardware function you're poking. 👑
  • p_ptt — the ptt resource pointer. this is your little VIP pass to talk to the hardware, don't lose it. 🎟️
  • active — ESL active status data pointer. this is where the answer gets dropped off, so pls make sure it points somewhere real. 🍓

💖 RETURN 💖

returns 0 with the esl status info filled in on success — slay. otherwise? it returns an error, so check it, bestie, don't just assume. 😭

fr fr, 0 means "here's your answer in *active", anything else means something went sideways. vibe check your return value every time. 💀
