bdisp_hw_reset(9)

💅 bdisp_hw_reset(9) — bestie edition

okay so this is bdisp_hw_reset, and yeah it lives in section 9 of the Kernel API Manual, which is the "kernel internals, not for the faint of heart" shelf. It's short. It's sweet. It's giving "one job and it does it." Let's get into it 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

bdisp_hw_reset —

and honestly? That's it. The dash is just… sitting there. The original page leaves the description totally blank, no cap, and we're not gonna invent one for you. Iconic in a mysterious way, lowkey 🫶

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int bdisp_hw_reset (struct bdisp_dev *bdisp );

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• bdisp — the bdisp entity 💖 (that's it, that's the whole description — it's the thing you're passing in, and yes the original really is that brief)

---

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

Resets HW. ✨

That's the entire description bestie, I'm not even playing. It resets the hardware. Periodt. No extra lore, no secret paragraphs, no "but first you must…" — it just goes and resets the HW 💅

ngl if you were hoping for a whole essay on what "HW" means in context, this page is not that. It says what it says, and what it says is reset the HW.

---

👑 RETURN 👑

• 0 on success. 🎉

That's the only return value listed — zero, success, done, slay.
