int set_resources_state (struct hinic_hwdev *hwdev , enum
hinic_res_state state );

like look at her. two args, one int coming back. main character energy fr fr 👑

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• hwdev — the NIC HW device. the hardware baddie itself 🦋
• state — the state you wanna set. that's the assignment, bestie 💅

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so here's the tea: it returns 0 for Success, and a negative value for Failure. no cap, that's the whole description. short king. 🫶

ngl, if you get a negative back, that's a failure — clock it and handle it 😭
