qlcnic_83xx_..._reset_state(9)

💅 qlcnic_83xx_..._reset_state(9) 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ — this one's a tiny little function page from the qlcnic 83xx driver world, and honestly? it's giving "short but mysterious" and we're gonna read it together 🫶

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

qlcnic_83xx_idc_need_reset_state — and then… literally nothing lmao 😭 the description after the dash is just empty. A total cliffhanger, no cap. That's the whole name line, we're not hiding anything from you 💖

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int qlcnic_83xx_idc_need_reset_state (struct qlcnic_adapter *adapter );

that's the whole signature, bestie — one function, one argument, returns an int. simple. iconic. periodt 💅

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• adapter — the adapter structure 🌈 that's it, that's the description, exactly as written. don't come for me, I'm just the messenger 🧚

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so the vibe here is: the device is just… sitting in this state. chilling. main character energy but on pause ⏸️💀 and it will remain in this state until one of these two things happens:

• Reset request ACK's are received from all the functions 👑 (all of them, fr fr — no partial credit)
• The wait time exceeds the max time limit ⏰

that's the entire description, and yes, those are the only two exits listed. no extras, no bonus lore 🙈

---

🔥 RETURN 🔥

• an error code, or Success(0) 🍓

like, if it's 0 you ate. if it's not, well… 😭
