💅 _autodep_lookup(9) — Kernel API Manual, bestie edition ✨

okay so picture this: you're deep in the kernel, you've got a struct clkdm_autodep just sitting there with names in it, and you need those names to become actual pointers. that's the whole gig. welcome to _autodep_lookup 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

_autodep_lookup — resolve autodep clkdm names to clkdm pointers, and store them. literally that's it, that's the function 🫶

⭐ SYNOPSIS ⭐

void _autodep_lookup (struct clkdm_autodep *autodep );

no cap, that's the entire signature. take it in. 💖

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • autodep — a struct clkdm_autodep *, aka the thing you're resolving. this is the main character of the function, bestie 👑

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So here's the tea 🍓: _autodep_lookup takes your autodep clockdomain names and resolves them into clockdomain pointers via clkdm_lookup, then stores those pointers right back in the autodep structure. name goes in, pointer comes out, everyone slays. 💅

Now, what even is an "autodep"? 🧚 it's a clockdomain sleep/wakeup dependency that gets automatically added and removed whenever clocks in the associated clockdomain are enabled or disabled (respectively 🫶) while that clockdomain is in hardware-supervised mode. automatic. effortless. iconic.

This function is meant to be called once at clockdomain layer initialization, because these things should remain fixed for a particular architecture. one and done, periodt. 🔥

And the return value? there isn't one. void. nothing. silence. 💀

⚠️ XXX — autodeps are deprecated and should be removed at the earliest opportunity. like, they're giving legacy. please clean this up when you get a chance, bestie 😭🙈
