devm_drm_bridge_add(9)

✨ devm_drm_bridge_add ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the devm_drm_bridge_add(9) page — it's the devm-managed glow-up of drm_bridge_add(), and honestly it's giving "I'll clean up after myself so you don't have to" 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int devm_drm_bridge_add (struct device *dev , struct drm_bridge *bridge );

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• dev — the device you're tying the bridge's whole lifetime to 🫶 it's the main character here, the bridge lives and dies by it
• bridge — the bridge control structure itself, the actual bridge bestie

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So this is the managed version of drm_bridge_add, right? It automatically calls drm_bridge_remove when dev gets unbound. That's it, that's the whole vibe — no manual teardown era, we let devm handle it. No cap, it's literally the same thing but it tidies up for you ✨

---

🔥 RETURN 🔥

0 if there's no error, or a negative error code if there is. That's the whole check, bestie 💀
