qed_mcp_ov_u...driver_state(9)

💖 NAME 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual, section 9 — the page is qed_mcp_ov_u...driver_state(9) and it's literally about one job:

qed_mcp_ov_update_driver_state — Notify MFW about the driver state. that's it. that's the whole gig. 🎀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int qed_mcp_ov_update_driver_state (struct qed_hwfn *p_hwfn , struct qed_ptt *p_ptt , enum qed_ov_driver_state drv_state );

it returns an int, it takes three things, and yes those spaces before the commas are canon, don't touch them 💅

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• p_hwfn — HW device data. the hardware device's whole little data situation, iconic, we love her 👑
• p_ptt — P_ptt. that's what the page says, and I'm not gonna pretend it says more, because it doesn't 🙈
• drv_state — Driver state. an enum qed_ov_driver_state, so like, the driver's current mood, basically 🌸

---

💀 RETURN 💀

Int — 0 — Operation was successul.

yep. 0 means it worked. and yes the page spells it "successul" and honestly? she ate, no notes 😭🫶
