💅 ads131m_reset 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for ads131m_reset — yes that's the function name, yes it's in the NAME section, and yes we're doing this. she's giving reset icon energy, no cap ✨

✨ NAME ✨

ads131m_reset — Resets the device using hardware or software. literally that's her whole job 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int ads131m_reset (struct ads131m_priv *priv , struct reset_control
*rstc );

like, she takes two things and returns an int, periodt 💅

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

• priv — Device private data structure. the main character of the struct world, she holds all the private deets 🔥
• rstc — Optional reset control, or NULL for software reset. so if you pass NULL? that's the software path, bestie, choose wisely 🌸

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

This function performs a hardware reset if supported (rstc provided), otherwise it issues a software RESET command via SPI.

that's it. that's the vibe check. hardware if you got the goods, software SPI RESET if you don't 🦋

🌈 NOTE 🌈

okay this part is important so listen up:

• The software reset path also validates the device's reset acknowledgment against the expected ID for the compatible string.
• The hardware reset path bypasses this ID check.

so like… software path = she checks your ID at the door, hardware path = walks right past the bouncer 💀 iykyk

⭐ RETURN ⭐

0 on success, or a negative error code. so 0? slay, we ate. negative? that's a no from her 🥲
