πŸ’… rsi_mgmt_pkt_recv(9) β€” the manual page, bestie edition ✨

Okay so this is the rsi_mgmt_pkt_recv manpage, and honestly it's giving "the function that handles all the management drama coming in from the hardware." It's a kernel API page, fr fr, and yes we're gonna get through it together.


✨ NAME ✨

rsi_mgmt_pkt_recv β€” this function processes the management packets received from the hardware. That's it, that's the whole vibe: hardware sends management packets, this function deals with them. Iconic little worker bee, no cap.


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int rsi_mgmt_pkt_recv (struct rsi_common *common , u8 *msg );

That's literally the whole signature. Obsessed with how cute and short it is.


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • common β€” pointer to the driver private structure. Like, this is where the driver keeps all its personal business, and common is our way in. 🫢
  • msg β€” pointer to the received packet. The actual management packet that hardware handed over. The main character of the whole function, honestly. πŸ‘‘

πŸ’– RETURN πŸ’–

  • 0 on success β€” yay, we ate, everything went off without a hitch ✨
  • -1 on failure β€” not the slay we wanted, but okay, at least it tells you 😭
