_ish_sync_fw_clock(9)
β¨ _ish_sync_fw_clock β Kernel API Manual β¨
Okay so bestie, welcome to _ish_sync_fw_clock(9) β yes that leading underscore is real and yes it's part of the name, don't @ me π
. This is the kernel API manual page for it, and we're gonna get you comfy with it in like two minutes flat π«Ά.
πΈ NAME πΈ
_ish_sync_fw_clock β literally syncs the FW clock with the OS clock. That's the whole vibe. β°β¨
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
void _ish_sync_fw_clock (struct ishtp_device *dev );
It returns void, so likeβ¦ nothing comes back. It just does the thing π₯.
π ARGUMENTS π
devβ the ishtp device pointer π. That's your one (1) input, bestie. That's it. That's the whole guest list.
π DESCRIPTION π
Okay so what does it actually do? It syncs FW and OS time. Yeah. That's genuinely the entire description in the original and I refuse to invent lore that isn't there π. It's giving "short and iconic", it's giving "said what she said", periodt β¨.
Ngl this is one of those "the name says everything" situations β no cap, no secret extra behaviour to memorise here π.
But do keep in mind: the docs list void as the return type, so don't go looking for a status code, there isn't one to check π§.
π₯ SEE ALSO π₯
Bestie, buckle up, because this is the part where the manpage just dumps the whole friend group on you π. Every single one of these lives in the kernel file ./drivers/hid/intel-ish-hid/ipc/ipc.c:

Twenty-nine whole cross-references π. Main character energy for days. Go read them if you want the full lore, iykyk π.
And that's the page, bestie π β brought to you by the source over in ./drivers/hid/intel-ish-hid/ipc, dated October 2026, and yes the footer really does just say _ish_sync_fw_clock(9) again because the manual page loves a callback π
β¨. Mwah, go sync some clocks π«Ά
