💅 qla4xxx_initialize_fw_cb(9) 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual 🌸 — yes, the actual manual manual, and today's main character is qla4xxx_initialize_fw_cb. Say it with me: initialize... fw... cb. It's giving "I set up the firmware control block and I did it flawlessly" energy, and honestly? Iconic. 👑

---

✨ NAME ✨

qla4xxx_initialize_fw_cb — literally just initializes the firmware control block. That's it. That's the whole job. No cap. 🎀

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int qla4xxx_initialize_fw_cb (struct scsi_qla_host * ha );

so it returns an int (iykyk, that return value is not decorative, keep an eye on it 👀) and it takes exactly one thing. One. Single. Argument. Minimalist queen. 💅

---

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• ha — a pointer to the host adapter structure (struct scsi_qla_host *). That's your whole input, bestie. Just the host adapter. Hand it over and let the function cook. 🍓
