acpiphp_add_context(9)

💖 NAME 💖

okay so bestie, this is from the Kernel API Manual and it's giving "one tiny function with one very specific job" energy ✨

acpiphp_add_context — adds an ACPIPHP context to an ACPI device object. That's the whole assignment, no cap. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

acpi_status acpiphp_add_context (acpi_handle handle , u32 lvl , void
*data , void **rv );

like, look at her. four arguments, one acpi_status return, absolutely iconic behavior 🎀

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• handle — the ACPI handle of the object you're adding a context to. this is the main character of the function ngl 👑
• lvl — not used. literally sitting there looking pretty. we respect her anyway 🫶
• data — the object's parent ACPIPHP bridge. that's the vibe, that's the context provider 💜
• rv — not used. another passenger on the function-signature bus. no thoughts, just vibes 🌸
