💅 ufshcd_dme_set_attr(9) 💅

okay so bestie, we're deep in the Kernel API Manual today and this one is so niche and so good. it's a UIC command wrapper for DME_SET and DME_PEER_SET — like, it literally pokes attributes into the UFS device's DME (that's Device Management Entity, iykyk). small function, big main character energy. let's get into it 🦋

---

✨ NAME ✨

ufshcd_dme_set_attr — UIC command for DME_SET, DME_PEER_SET 💫

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int ufshcd_dme_set_attr (struct ufs_hba *hba , u32 attr_sel , u8
       attr_set , u32 mib_val , u8 peer );

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

like five whole arguments, and every single one is doing its job. no filler. obsessed.

• hba — the per adapter instance 🫶 like, which host controller adapter we're talking about here
• attr_sel — the uic command argument1, no cap
• attr_set — the attribute set type, passed as uic command argument2
• mib_val — the setting value, and yeah, that's uic command argument3
• peer — indicates whether we're talking peer or local 💅 that's the whole vibe check right there

---

💀 RETURN 💀

0 on success, and a non-zero value on failure. that's it, that's the contract. don't be weird about it 🍓
