okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual corner of the group chat 🫶. This page is all about bulk_read_support, and it is <highkey>literally</highkey> here to do one very specific vibe check: see if a slave supports bulk read. periodt. ✨

💖 NAME 💖

bulk_read_support — check if slave support bulk read. that's the name, no cap 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bool bulk_read_support (struct w1_slave *sl );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• sl — the device to check the ability. yep, that's the one we're checking, bestie 🎀

🦋 RETURN 🦋

Returns true if bulk read is supported, and false if not or error. that's the return tea, fr fr 😭

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈
