💖 cros_ec_get...version_mask(9) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ this one's a lil page about asking your ChromeOS Embedded Controller "hey girl, what version of this command do you speak?" — and it's lowkey iconic 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

cros_ec_get_host_command_version_mask — no cap, that's the whole name section, the original didn't give us a one-liner so we're not gonna invent one 🙈

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int cros_ec_get_host_command_version_mask (struct cros_ec_device *ec_dev
, u16 cmd , u32 *mask );

that's the whole vibe right there 🫶

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • ec_dev — the EC device you're calling, like dialing up your embedded controller bestie 💅
  • cmd — the command you wanna get the version of. yes, that command 🎯
  • mask — this is where the answer lands, but only when the function returns 0. it's the output slot, bestie, it stays empty until things go right 🌈

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

Get the version mask of a given command. that's it, that's the whole thing, and honestly? slay 💖

return 0 on success, error code otherwise 😭 (iykyk, always check your return values)

LOCKING: ⚠️ the caller has ec_dev->lock mutex or the caller knows there is no other command in progress. fr fr, don't skip this — this is the vibe check for your locking discipline and it is not optional 💀
