rz1000_set_mode(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

Welcome to rz1000_set_mode(9), straight from the Kernel API Manual β€” yes, we're in our kernel API era now, bestie. πŸ’…

rz1000_set_mode β€” mode setting function. That's the name, that's the function, periodt. ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

Here's the signature, exactly as it is, no edits, because we respect the code:

int rz1000_set_mode (struct ata_link *link , struct ata_device **unused
);

πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • link β€” ATA link. Yep, that's the whole description, and honestly it's serving short-and-mysterious. 🫢
  • unused β€” returned device on set_mode failure. So if set_mode fails, this is the returned device, bestie. πŸ™ˆ

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

Okay so the vibe here is: use a non standard set_mode function. We don't want to be tuned. We would prefer to be BIOS generic, but for the fact our hardware is whacked out. That's the whole story, no cap. πŸ’€

It's giving "we tried normal, the hardware said no" energy, and honestly? Iconic. πŸ¦‹
