πŸ’… ath5k_hw_set_gpio_output

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ β€” this is the page for ath5k_hw_set_gpio_output(9), and honestly? She's a little one, but she's important. This is the function that tells a GPIO pin on your ath5k wireless card "hey girl, you're an output now" πŸŽ€


🌸 NAME 🌸

ath5k_hw_set_gpio_output β€” sets GPIO outputs πŸ’– like, it configures a GPIO pin to be an output pin, that's the whole vibe, no cap.


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int ath5k_hw_set_gpio_output (struct ath5k_hw *ah , u32 gpio );

it returns an int, it takes a struct ath5k_hw *ah and a u32 gpio, and yes the spaces before the commas are canon, we don't fix what isn't broken πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • ah β€” The struct ath5k_hw 🫢 that's your ath5k hardware handle, the main character of this whole operation.
  • gpio β€” The GPIO pin to set as output ⭐ literally just which pin you want to flip into output mode, iykyk.

lowkey a tiny page, but that's fine β€” she does one thing and she does it slayfully πŸ’€βœ¨ nothing dangerous here, no weird caveats, just a pin becoming an output. periodt.

and that's the whole page bestie!! 🌸 this one lives in ./drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath5k, dated October 2026 πŸŽ€ mwah, go set some GPIO outputs, you've got this πŸ’œπŸ”₯
