qed_mcp_get_link_state(9)

💅 qed_mcp_get_link_state(9) — a Kernel API Manual moment 🎀

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ this one's a lil function page and honestly it's short but it serves. it's giving "small but mighty" energy fr.

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

qed_mcp_get_link_state — returns the link state of the hw function 💖 that's literally it, that's the whole job.

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

struct qed_mcp_link_state * qed_mcp_get_link_state (struct qed_hwfn
*p_hwfn );

look at that signature, it ate 🔥 no cap.

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• p_hwfn — HW device data. that's the hardware device data bestie, hand it over and you're good 🫶

---

👑 RETURN 👑

Pointer to link state 💫 yeah, it gives you back a pointer to the link state. iconic behaviour tbh.

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

okay this is the part where the page goes full main character — the see-also list is lowkey huge and we are NOT skipping a single one, periodt 💅 also peep the kernel file itself: ./drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qed/qed_mcp.h 📁
