π wx_read_ee_hostif(9) β EEPROM hostif read realness π
okay so bestie, this is the Kernel API Manual page for wx_read_ee_hostif(9), and it's literally about reading a word out of EEPROM through a host interface cmd. No cap, that's the vibe. β¨
πΈ NAME πΈ
wx_read_ee_hostif β Read EEPROM word using a host interface cmd. It's giving "small function, very specific job," and honestly? Iconic. π
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
int wx_read_ee_hostif (struct wx *wx , u16 offset , u16 *data );
π ARGUMENTS π
wxβ pointer to hardware structure. Like the VIP pass to the hardware situation. π«Άoffsetβ offset of word in the EEPROM to read. That's the exact little address situation for the word you want. π₯dataβ word read from the EEPROM. This is where the read word lives. π
π DESCRIPTION π
Reads a 16 bit word from the EEPROM using the hostif. That's it, that's the whole main character energy: a 16 bit EEPROM word, grabbed via the hostif. π¦
