_init_clkdm(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

✨ NAME ✨

okay so this is _init_clkdm(9) from the Kernel API Manual, and the name is literally the whole vibe: look up a clockdomain name, store pointer in omap_hwmod. She’s a tiny helper with main character energy, fr fr. πŸ’…


πŸ› οΈ SYNOPSIS πŸ› οΈ

int _init_clkdm (struct omap_hwmod *oh );

One function, one argument, zero drama. slay. ✨


🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • oh β€” struct omap_hwmod *. This is the struct getting the glow-up: the clockdomain name lives in there, and the matching pointer gets saved right back into it. 🫢

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

okay so here’s the tea: _init_clkdm takes a clockdomain name stored in a struct omap_hwmod, converts that name into a clockdomain pointer, and saves the pointer into the struct omap_hwmod. It’s giving matchmaker but for kernel structs, lowkey iconic. ✨

If the clkdm_name lookup fails, it returns -EINVAL. That’s the error path, bestie β€” not a vibe, but very much documented. 😭

no cap: the lookup failing means -EINVAL, periodt. πŸ’€
