π ab8500_fg_sysfs_init β init of sysfs entry
okay so this is from the Kernel API Manual (section 9, kernel functions, iykyk) and it's honestly a little icon: it's the function that gives your fuel gauge its very own sysfs moment. π
β¨ NAME β¨
ab8500_fg_sysfs_init β init of sysfs entry
like, it sets up the sysfs entry. that's the whole vibe. π¦
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
int ab8500_fg_sysfs_init (struct ab8500_fg *di );
π§ ARGUMENTS π§
diβ pointer to the structab8500_chargalg. yes bestie, the manpage really does sayab8500_chargalghere even though the parameter type isstruct ab8500_fg *, and we are reporting it exactly as written, no edits, periodt. π
π₯ DESCRIPTION π₯
This function adds an entry in sysfs. that's it, that's the main character energy. β¨
Returns an error code in case of failure, else 0 (on success). so 0 = slay, non-zero = something went sideways, check it. π
