✨ NAME ✨

qed_mcp_read_mb — Read the MFW mailbox into Current buffer.

like. that's the whole assignment. read the mailbox, dump it in the current buffer, mic drop 🎤✨

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void qed_mcp_read_mb (struct qed_hwfn *p_hwfn , struct qed_ptt *p_ptt );

no return value, two args, no drama. the way she's void and just does the thing? main character energy fr 😌

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• p_hwfn — HW device data. this is the hardware function's whole situation, the context, the lore 👑
• p_ptt — P_ptt. yes that's the whole description, that's all the manpage gives us, and honestly? respect for the brevity 💀 it's the PTT, you know what it is, moving on.
