💅 vio_bus_init(9) — the manual page, but make it make sense

okay so bestie, welcome to vio_bus_init(9) — say that five times fast, i dare you. it's giving kernel API manual energy and honestly? it ate. this one lives in the powerpc/pseries corner of the kernel and it's all about the virtual IO bus, so grab your iced coffee and let's get into it 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

vio_bus_init — literally just Initialize the virtual IO bus. that's the whole vibe. no cap, that's it. 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int vio_bus_init (void );

she takes no arguments, she returns an int, she's booked and busy. main character energy fr. ✨

💜 ARGUMENTS 💜

  • void — no arguments. none. zero. the void is empty and honestly relatable 😭
like literally nothing gets passed in here, she just shows up and does the thing. icon behavior.

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

like look at all those vio_cmo_* girlies — it's a whole squad, iykyk 💅
