t3_get_fw_version(9)

💾 t3_get_fw_version — like, the firmware version speedrun 💅

ok so this is t3_get_fw_version from the Kernel API Manual (section 9, the kernel dev girlies know) — it's a tiny little function that goes and gets the firmware version for you. one job. does it. slay. ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

t3_get_fw_version — read the firmware version 🎀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int t3_get_fw_version (struct adapter *adapter , u32 *vers );

like, yes, the spacing is giving chaos but that's literally how it's written, no cap. do not come for me. 💀

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

• adapter — the adapter. that's it. that's the whole description. she's the adapter bestie, the main character of this whole thing 👑
• vers — where to place the version. not a copy, not a vibe — this is the spot where the version gets dropped. so make sure it's valid, mkay 🙈

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Reads the FW version from flash. ⭐

that's genuinely it — no hidden lore, no surprise side quests. it goes to the flash, it reads the firmware version, it comes back. short, sweet, iconic. literally the "in and out, twenty minute adventure" of kernel functions 🧚
