💅 comedi_8254_set_busy(9) 💅

Hey bestie, welcome to the comedi_8254_set_busy page — it's a Kernel API Manual entry, section <pink>9</pink>, and honestly it's a tiny one but it's doing a very specific little job and we respect her for it. ✨

So like, the whole vibe: this function sets or clears the "busy" flag for a given counter. That's it. That's the function. Short king. 👑

✨ NAME ✨

comedi_8254_set_busy — set/clear the "busy" flag for a given counter 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void comedi_8254_set_busy (struct comedi_8254 *i8254 , unsigned int
counter , bool busy );

Look at her. Returns <purple>void</purple> — no return value, no exit status, no drama, she just does the thing and leaves. 💅

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • i8254 — the comedi_8254 struct for the timer 🫶 this is the main character, the struct you're working on.
  • counter — the counter number, an unsigned int. Which counter are we flagging? You tell her. ⭐
  • busy — a bool: set/clear flag. So true sets it, false clears it — the flag toggle of it all. 🙈

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

Kernel file ./drivers/comedi/drivers/comedi_8254.c — like, the source, go read her 💖

The whole 8254 bestie squad, all of these are (9) manpages and yes you should absolutely go read them:

no cap, that's the entire page — set the flag, clear the flag, go forth and slay 🧚

Okay that's a wrap, bestie! 🌈 This page lives in the kernel source tree under ./drivers/comedi/drivers, and the version/date on the tin says October 2026 — so yeah, future-dated and iconic. 🍓 Bye, love you, read your SEE ALSOs! 💜🎀
