STRUCT CYGNUS_PCIE_PHY_CORE(9)

💖 STRUCT CYGNUS_PCIE_PHY_CORE(9) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the kernel API manual for struct cygnus_pcie_phy_core — literally the core control situation for the Cygnus PCIe PHY ✨. yes this is section 9, yes it's kernel API, yes we're doing this. pull up a chair 🎀

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

struct cygnus_pcie_phy_core — Cygnus PCIe PHY core control. that's it, that's the vibe. it's the main character struct holding the whole PHY core together 👑

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

okay so here's the whole struct laid out, exactly as it lives:

struct cygnus_pcie_phy_core {
    struct device *dev;
    void __iomem *base;
    struct mutex lock;
    struct cygnus_pcie_phy phys[MAX_NUM_PHYS];
 };

like, look at her. four members, one lock, an array of PHYs — she's giving organized and secure 💅 no cap, that mutex is doing serious work.

---

🦋 Members 🦋

• dev — pointer to device 💜 the actual device this whole thing belongs to.
• base — base register 🔥 your void __iomem * era. this is where the registers start, periodt.
• lock — mutex to protect access to individual PHYs 🔒 like, access to individual PHYs is guarded by this mutex, and that's genuinely important, don't skip her.
• phys — pointer to Cygnus PHY device 🧚 the array of struct cygnus_pcie_phy, sized MAX_NUM_PHYS. there can be more than one PHY bestie, they're not a solo act.

---

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

• Kernel file ./drivers/phy/broadcom/phy-bcm-cygnus-pcie.c 📁 — go read the source, iykyk
• struct cygnus_pcie_phy(9) — the sibling manpage, go give her a visit 🫶

---

ok one gentle reminder bestie: this is literally just the struct layout, so don't go inventing behaviour that isn't here — what you see is what you get 💀

and that's the page!! 💖 comes to you from ./drivers/phy/broadcom, dated October 2026, and it's struct cygnus_pcie_phy_core(9) all the way down 🌸 slay, go read the kernel source, ily, bye 🎀✨
