clk_hw_get_clk(9)
π clk_hw_get_clk(9) π
okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β yes, the clk_hw_get_clk(9) page, and honestly? it's giving lowkey legendary. buckle up π
β¨ NAME β¨
clk_hw_get_clk β get clk consumer given an clk_hw π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
struct clk * clk_hw_get_clk (struct clk_hw *hw , const char *con_id );
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
hwβ theclk_hwthat's associated with the clk being consumed, like it's the hardware's whole identity fr fr πcon_idβ the connection ID string on device, aka the little name-tag situation β¨
π RETURN π
returns a new clk consumer π«Ά
and like, this is the function to be used by providers which need to get a consumer clk and act on the clock element. so if that's your vibe, this is your function, no cap.
β οΈ okay this part matters bestie: calls to this function must be balanced with calls clk_put. literally do not forget or it's gonna be a whole thing π balance your calls like your life depends on it. periodt.
