✨ qla2x00_write_nvram_word(9) ✨

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and honestly? it's a tiny little function with main character energy. it does exactly one thing and it does it slay: it writes a word into NVRAM. that's it. that's the whole vibe. 💅

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

qla2x00_write_nvram_word — writes NVRAM data, bestie. literally what it says on the tin. no cap. ✨

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

void qla2x00_write_nvram_word (struct qla_hw_data *ha , uint32_t addr ,
       __le16 data );

like, look at her. returns void (she gives nothing back, she just does it, iconic), takes three args, done. 🫶

---

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• ha — the HA context. she needs to know which hardware she's talking to before she does anything, obviously. context is everything, iykyk. 🦋
• addr — the address in NVRAM you wanna write to. like a little home address but for bytes. 🏠
• data — the word you're programming in there. the payload. the moment. the reason we're all here. ⭐
