πŸ’… zl3073x_fw_component_flash(9) πŸ’…

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ β€” this is the page for zl3073x_fw_component_flash, and yes it's a mouthful, but we're gonna get through it together, i promise 🫢


🌸 NAME 🌸

zl3073x_fw_component_flash β€” the one that flashes all the components, no cap πŸ”₯

Like, all of them. Every last one. It's giving "finish the job" energy πŸ’…


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int zl3073x_fw_component_flash (struct zl3073x_dev *zldev,
                                struct zl3073x_fw_component *comp,
                                struct netlink_ext_ack *extack);

three arguments, one return value, and a whole lot of firmware-flashing potential, iykyk πŸ¦‹


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • zldev β€” the zl3073x device structure πŸ’– this is the main character of the operation, like the actual device we're doing things to, periodt.
  • comp β€” a pointer to the components array 🌈 yes bestie, the array β€” this is where all your components live, and this function is gonna flash every single one of them.
  • extack β€” the netlink extack pointer, and its whole job is to report errors 😭 so if something goes sideways, this is the one that tells you. not me forgetting to check extack… πŸ™ˆ

⭐ RETURN ⭐

  • 0 in case of success πŸ’š (slay, we love a clean return)
  • a negative number otherwise πŸ’€ (not slay, but at least you know)
fr fr, always check the return value β€” negative is the vibe check failing 😀
