πŸ’… bcm63xx_ep0_do_idle(9) πŸ’…

okay hi bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual section for bcm63xx_ep0_do_idle β€” yes it's a mouthful, yes we're gonna get through it together, and yes it's giving "tiny function, huge job" energy πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

bcm63xx_ep0_do_idle β€” the little function that checks if there's anything outstanding to do when ep0 is just sitting there being idle πŸ¦‹


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int bcm63xx_ep0_do_idle (struct bcm63xx_udc *udc );

like... that's it. that's the whole signature. slay πŸ’…


πŸ’– ARGUMENTS πŸ’–

  • udc β€” a reference to the device controller. that's your whole vibe check source right there πŸ‘‘

πŸ”₯ DESCRIPTION πŸ”₯

so picture this: we're in state EP0_IDLE. in that state, the RX descriptor is either pending, or it's already been filled with a SETUP packet from the host. literally one or the other, no in-between, main character energy ✨

what this function does is handle the whole menu of events:

  • new SETUP packets πŸŽ€
  • control IRQ events β€” and yes, those can generate fake SETUP packets, not me saying that, that's just the truth 😭
  • reset/shutdown events πŸ’€

and then it tells you how it went:

  • returns 0 if work was done βœ…
  • returns -EAGAIN if there's nothing to do πŸ™ˆ

periodt. no cap. that's the whole contract 🫢
