rsi_send_reset_mac(9)

💅 rsi_send_reset_mac — straight outta the Kernel API Manual ✨

okay bestie, gather round, because today we're talking about a little kernel function with big main-character energy. It lives in the Kernel API Manual, it's called rsi_send_reset_mac, and honestly? It's giving "quietly essential." 🎀

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

rsi_send_reset_mac — this function prepares a reset MAC request and sends an internal management frame to indicate it to the firmware. yes, it really does both parts. prep and send. multi-talented icon behavior. 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int rsi_send_reset_mac (struct rsi_common *common );

(yes the spacing is exactly like that, do not come for me, that's just how it's written 🫶)

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• common — Pointer to the driver private structure. that's the driver's own little personal stash of state, and we hand it over so the function knows who it's working with 💖

---

⭐ RETURN ⭐

• 0 on success 🎉
• corresponding error code on failure 😭

that's it, that's the whole vibe check. zero means slay, anything else means go read the error code, bestie.

lowkey reminder: this is kernel API territory, so keep the vibe respectful and the arguments pointer-shaped. no cap. 🙈
