💅 sxgbe_get_hw_features(9) 💅

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, bestie — we're deep in kernel land today, and honestly? it's giving "tiny function, big responsibility." 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

sxgbe_get_hw_features — literally just goes and gets the XMAC capabilities out of the HW cap. register. that's it. that's the whole job. 🦋

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int sxgbe_get_hw_features (struct sxgbe_priv_data * const priv );

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• priv — the driver private structure. your little bag of holding, she carries everything. 👑

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so like… the new GMAC chip generations? they got a whole new register 😭 and that register is there to indicate the presence of the optional feature/functions. no cap, that's what it's for.

it can also be used to override the value passed through the platform — and that's necessary for the old MAC10/100 and GMAC chips. highkey important for the legacy girlies. 💅
