✨ NAME ✨

ab8500_chargalg_stop_safety_timer — the girl who stops the charging safety timer 🛑⏱️

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

void ab8500_chargalg_stop_safety_timer (struct ab8500_chargalg *di );

like... that's it. that's the whole signature. no return value, no drama, she just goes in and handles it. 💅

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• di — pointer to the ab8500_chargalg structure 🫶 literally just a pointer to your chargal struct, hand it over and she'll know what to do.

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so listen bestie: the safety timer gets stopped whenever the NORMAL state is exited 👀 that's it, that's the whole vibe check. the moment you dip out of NORMAL, this function is there to shut the safety timer down. no cap.
