πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… stmmac_adjust_time(9) β€” from the Kernel API Manual, bestie

okay so welcome to the manual page for stmmac_adjust_time, straight out of the Kernel API Manual. yes we're in kernel-land. yes it's hot. let's get into it 🫢


🌸 NAME

stmmac_adjust_time β€” (the original literally just leaves this blank, which is SO mysterious of it, honestly iconic 😭 the description is in DESCRIPTION, keep scrolling)


✨ SYNOPSIS

int stmmac_adjust_time (struct ptp_clock_info *ptp , s64 delta );

like, that's the whole signature. short king energy πŸ‘‘


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS

  • ptp β€” a pointer to the ptp_clock_info structure. that's your clock-info situation right there ✨
  • delta β€” the desired change, in nanoseconds. how much do we want to shift by? that much. exactly that many nanoseconds πŸ•°οΈ

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION

this function will shift/adjust the hardware clock time. that's it, that's the whole vibe β€” it nudges the hardware clock in time by the amount you asked for πŸ’«


🌈 SEE ALSO

bestie the cross-references are giving a whole friend group, look at them all:


ngl if you're messing with the hardware clock, go read the whole little family above. they're all in ./drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/stmmac_ptp.c together, main character energy fr fr πŸ’œ

and that's the page!! sourced from ./drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/... (the kernel tree path up there ⬆️), dated October 2026, and the whole thing is filed under stmmac_adjust_time(9). mwah, study it, slay, periodt πŸ’…πŸŽ€βœ¨
