πŸ’… device_complete(9) β€” the Kernel API Manual glow-up ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to device_complete, straight out of the Kernel API Manual (device_complete(9) if we're being formal, which we're not 🫢). This is a tiny little function with a big job and honestly? it ate. Let's get into it 🌸


✨ NAME ✨

device_complete β€” Complete a PM transition for given device. that's it, that's the whole vibe. PM = power management, and this is the "we're done here, wrap it up" moment πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

void device_complete (struct device *dev , pm_message_t state );

no cap, it returns void β€” it's not here to hand you back a value, it's here to do the thing and dip πŸ”₯


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • dev β€” Device to handle. this is your main character right here, the device we're completing the transition for πŸ‘‘
  • state β€” PM transition of the system being carried out. it's a pm_message_t and it's telling you which transition we're finishing up, so pay attention bestie ⭐

okay this list is long and I'm obsessed with it. literally the whole pm friend group showed up to the group chat 😭 also check the kernel file ./drivers/base/power/main.c if you want the source-source iykyk πŸ’–

fr fr, that's all of them, no skips, no cuts. the pm subsystem said "invite everyone" and meant it πŸ’€

and that's the page bestie!! ✨ sign-off time: this lil beauty comes from the kernel source over in ./drivers/base/power, and it's dated October 2026. literally iconic, periodt πŸ™ˆπŸ’œπŸ“
