clk_put(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 NAME 💅

clk_put — the "free the clock source" girlie ✨ like she's literally releasing her grip on the clock handle, no cap

This one lives in the Kernel API Manual (clk_put(9)), bestie — it's a kernel-level thing, not your average userland command 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void clk_put (struct clk *clk );

yep that's the whole signature, she's short and sweet 🎀

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • clk — the clock source. that's it. that's the argument. the clock source in question, the one you're putting down 💅

💖 NOTE 💖

okay so this part is important, like actually read it bestie 🙈

  • drivers must make sure that every single clk_enable call they did on this clock source is balanced out by a matching clk_disable call before they go calling this function. balanced, babe. for every enable there's a disable. that's the vibe check ⚖️
🚨 and <red>clk_put</red> should not be called from within interrupt context. like, do not. not the move. periodt 💀

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈
