okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual πŸŽ€ β€” yes this is a real manual page, yes it's about ARM's SMCCC stuff, and yes we're gonna get through it together. sit down, grab a strawberry πŸ“, let's go.


✨ NAME ✨

arm_smccc_1_1_get_conduit β€” and that's literally it, that's the whole NAME section. the manpage just trails off after the dash like a text that got left on read 😭 no cap, there's nothing else there. we move.


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

enum arm_smccc_conduit arm_smccc_1_1_get_conduit (void );

that's the whole call signature, copy it exactly, don't be weird about it 🫢


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • void β€” no arguments. that's it. it takes nothing. she's low maintenance, she needs zero input, she simply exists πŸ‘‘

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

so here's the vibe: this function returns the conduit to be used for SMCCCv1.1 or later. that's the whole job. one call, one answer, main character energy ⭐

and the plot twist πŸ‘€ β€” when SMCCCv1.1 is not present, she returns SMCCC_CONDUIT_NONE. so if you were expecting a conduit and got NONE, that's not a bug, that's the function telling you the version you wanted isn't there. vibe check complete πŸ’€
