STRUCT PCH_GBE_PRIVDATA(9)

💖 struct pch_gbe_privdata(9) 💖

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual bestie, and we're about to get so cozy with one little struct, no cap 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

struct pch_gbe_privdata — literally just the PCI Device ID driver data 💅 that's it, that's the vibe

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

here's the whole glow-up, copy it exactly bestie:

struct pch_gbe_privdata {
    bool phy_tx_clk_delay;
    bool phy_disable_hibernate;
    int (*platform_init)(struct pci_dev *pdev);
 };

like, three little members and they're all doing main character energy ✨

---

🎀 Members 🎀

• phy_tx_clk_delay — a bool, and what it does is configure the PHY TX delay in software 🦋 so yes, software is running the delay situation, iykyk
• phy_disable_hibernate — also a bool, and it disables PHY hibernation 💤➡️🚫 like we're waking that PHY up and telling it no naps allowed periodt
• platform_init — the platform initialization callback 🔥 it's an int (*)(struct pci_dev *pdev) and here's the important bit: it gets called from probe, prior to PHY initialization ⭐ so it shows up before the PHY stuff happens, that ordering is not a suggestion bestie

ngl there are no warnings on this page, which is a slay, but also remember: the facts above are the entire facts, so don't go reading extra behaviour into these bools that the page didn't say 😭

and that's the whole page bestie!! this gem came from ./drivers/net/ethernet/oki-sem... (that's the truncated-looking source path, keep it as-is 🙈), dated October 2026, and it's all about struct pch_gbe_privdata(9) 💖🎀🦋 see you in the next manpage, mwah 💅✨
