💖 CLCS(4) — the Cirrus Logic edition, bestie 💖

okay so real talk, this page lives in the Kernel Interfaces Manual and it's all about clcs, the Cirrus Logic CS4280 audio device driver. yes, that's the whole vibe. let's get into it 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

clcs — the Cirrus Logic CS4280 audio device driver. sound stuff. iconic. that's her 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

so here's how she slots into your kernel config, and yes you literally write it like this:

clcs*  at pci? dev ? function ?
audio* at audiobus?
midi*  at clcs?

no cap, that's the whole arrangement — clcs hangs off pci?, then audio* shows up on audiobus?, and midi* does its thing at clcs? 🦋

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

the clcs driver provides support for the Cirrus Logic CS4280 chip. that's the main character right there 👑

now for the ✨ lore ✨ — partial support exists for the CS461x chips, but it's disabled. so sorry bestie 😭 instead, you should be using the wss(4) or sb(4) drivers.

🫶 quick vibe check: the CS461x thing is genuinely turned off, so don't come for me — the page literally says use wss(4) or sb(4) instead, periodt.

and that's the page, bestie — no crumbs left behind 💖✨
