πŸ’– __cpuidle_driver_init(9) πŸ’–

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual (section 9, the kernel-functions girlies) and it's literally just one function doing its little internal-data glow-up. no cap, it's a short one, but we're gonna read it properly anyway because that's the vibe πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

__cpuidle_driver_init β€” initialize the driver's internal data πŸ’…


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void __cpuidle_driver_init (struct cpuidle_driver *drv );

that's it. that's the whole signature. returns void, so it's giving "i do the work and i don't need credit" main character energy 🫢


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • drv β€” a valid pointer to a struct cpuidle_driver. bestie, note the word valid β€” this is not the moment to be handing it a random pointer you found in a bush πŸ™ˆ

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

all the sibling functions, fr fr β€” go read them, they're iconic πŸ‘‘

(yes, some of them appear more than once in the list β€” that's exactly how the original rolls, so we're keeping them all, duplicates and all, periodt πŸ’…)


no warnings on this page, no exit statuses, no env vars β€” the whole thing is genuinely just "here's a function, here's its one argument, here's where to read next." sometimes the manpage is chill like that 🌸

and that's the whole page, bestie!! source is the ./drivers/cpuidle corner of the kernel tree, dated October 2026, and it lives in the Kernel API Manual as __cpuidle_driver_init(9) πŸ§šπŸ’œ slay, go initialize something. πŸŽ€
