💖 yenta_fixup_parent_bridge(9) — Kernel API Manual 🌸

okay so bestie, this is the kernel API manual page for yenta_fixup_parent_bridge(9), and no cap it's giving “tiny bridge-fixup icon” energy. 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

yenta_fixup_parent_bridge — Fix subordinate bus# of the parent bridge 💅

⭐ SYNOPSIS ⭐

void yenta_fixup_parent_bridge (struct pci_bus *cardbus_bridge );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• cardbus_bridge — the PCI bus which the CardBus bridge bridges to. literally the bus in question, bestie 🚌

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So this function checks if devices on the bus which the CardBus bridge bridges to would be invisible during PCI scans. Why? Because of a misconfigured subordinate number of the parent brige — yup, brige is right there in the original, keeping it exactly 💀 — and some BIOSes seem to be too lazy to set it right. 🙈

It does the fixup carefully by checking how far it can go without conflicts. lowkey respectful of boundaries, we love to see it ✨
