πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… dev_pm_opp_get_power(9) πŸ’…

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ β€” this one's a little function with big "tell me how much power this opp eats" energy, and honestly? iconic. let's get into it 🫢


🌸 NAME 🌸

dev_pm_opp_get_power β€” literally gets the power that goes with an opp πŸ’–


⭐ SYNOPSIS ⭐

unsigned long dev_pm_opp_get_power (struct dev_pm_opp *opp );

like yes, it takes one thing, it gives back an unsigned long. no cap. πŸ”₯


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • opp β€” the opp you want the power for, bestie. that's it. that's the whole argument. she's low maintenance πŸ’…

πŸ¦‹ RETURN πŸ¦‹

returns the power in micro watt corresponding to the opp ✨ and if it can't? it returns 0. so yeah, zero means "nothing to see here", not a mystery number πŸ™ˆ


πŸ’œ DESCRIPTION πŸ’œ

so this is useful only for devices with a single power supply 🫢 β€” like, one supply, one vibe, that's the whole thing. don't come at her with a multi-supply situation, she's not that girl 😭


🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

this list is long and every single one is invited to the group chat, no one left on read πŸ‘‘

the source file: kernel file ./drivers/opp/core.c, plus _find_opp_table(9)

and then, in order, the whole squad:


πŸ’€ reminder bestie: 0 back from this function is the "no power for you" answer, and the whole thing is single-power-supply only. that's not me being dramatic, that's just the manpage πŸ’…

and that's the tea β˜• mwah πŸ’‹ β€” this page lives in ./drivers/opp and it's dated October 2026, so yeah, future-coded queen βœ¨πŸ¦‹ see u in the next (9) bestie πŸ«ΆπŸŽ€
