arm_smccc_ge...c_id_version(9)

💅 NAME 💅

arm_smccc_get_soc_id_version — okay so bestie, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual (section 9, iykyk), and the NAME line is honestly giving "left the description on read" — the original has literally nothing after the dash. Not a single word. The void stares back. 🫶 So let's just say: this is the function that tells you the SOC ID version, and everything else you need is right below. ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

s32 arm_smccc_get_soc_id_version (void );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• void — no arguments. none. zero. nada. it takes absolutely nothing, and honestly? respect. 💅

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Returns the SOC ID version. That's the whole gig. 🫶

But here's the plot twist, bestie 👑 — when ARM_SMCCC_ARCH_SOC_ID is not present, it returns SMCCC_RET_NOT_SUPPORTED. so if you get that back, it's not you, it's the architecture not having the thing. no cap. 😭

lowkey obsessed with how short this one is. main character energy, minimal dialogue. 💀✨

that's the whole page, bestie — love that for us 🧚💜

and a lil sign-off 🎀: this one lives in ./include/linux, and it's dated October 2026, filed under arm_smccc_ge...c_id_version(9) — yeah the title's truncated, we don't know her full name either, it's giving mystery. slay. 🦋
