stop_pci_io(9)

💅 NAME 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual (section 9, we're fancy like that) — today's main character is stop_pci_io, and it does exactly one thing: Stop all PCI IO to a given device. that's it. that's the whole vibe. 🛑

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void stop_pci_io (struct octeon_device *oct );

like, no return value, no drama, it just goes. 💅

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• oct — Pointer to Octeon device. yeah that's it, that's the whole argument list. she takes one (1) pointer and she's done. 🫶

and that's the tea, bestie 💖 this icon dropped back in October 2026, straight out of ./drivers/net/ethernet/cavium/... — slay, go stop some PCI IO responsibly 🎀✨
