🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So this function obtains a list of all the possible globally-named routes for the particular device. All of them. The whole roster 👑

A globally-named route is a route where the source and destination values are globally recognized, regardless of the subdevice. Like, the names hit device-wide, no cap. This function returns every possible signal route that's either connectible via comedi_cmd->start_arg aruments or via the device-global configuration interface of comedi_connect_route and comedi_disconnect_route 🔥

The routelist parameter provides memory into which the results may be copied. The comedi_route_pair is (as specified in comedi.h):

typedef struct {
  unsigned int source;
  unsigned int destination;
} comedi_route_pair;

routelist may be specified as NULL, in which case only the number of routes will be returned. so like, a little vibe check first — "how many we talking?" — no memory needed 🙈

The n parameter provides specifies the number of slots available in the routelist array 🌸

---

🧚 RETURN VALUE 🧚

• The number of routes available if routelist is NULL 💖
• the number of routes copied if routelist is not NULL ✨
• or -1 on error 💀
