okay bestie, welcome to the funct(3rtapi) manual page — it's giving RTAPI energy and we're gonna get you all the way together ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

rtapi_device.h — RTAPI wrappers for linux kernel functionality

✨ SYNTAX ✨

so like, here's the whole vibe, no cap:

#include <rtapi_device.h>

struct rtapi_device;

int rtapi_dev_set_name(struct rtapi_device *dev, const char *name, ...);

int rtapi_device_register(struct rtapi_device *dev);

int rtapi_device_unregister(struct rtapi_device *dev);

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so real talk, here's what's tea 🍓

In kernel space, each rtapi_xxx or RTAPI_XXX identifier is mapped to the underlying kernel functionality, if available. periodt.

In userspace, or in kernels where the underlying functionality is not provided by a kernel, generally another implementation — possibly with reduced functionality — is provided. (For example, the userspace implementation for rtapi_device_register always succeeds) and honestly? iconic of it 💅

🔥 REALTIME CONSIDERATIONS 🔥

Typically, these functions may be called from realtime init/cleanup code. so like, they're lowkey built different for that realtime moment, bestie 🌈

💜 RETURN VALUE 💜

As in Linux. fr fr 🫶
