✨ devm_hte_register_chip β€” the kernel API manual, bestie edition πŸ’…

Okay so this one is from the Kernel API Manual (devm_hte_register_chip(9)), and it's literally the ✨resource-managed✨ way to get your HTE chip registered. Buckle up, it's short but it's iconic.


🌸 NAME 🌸

devm_hte_register_chip β€” the resource managed API that registers an HTE chip. πŸŽ€

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int devm_hte_register_chip (struct hte_chip *chip );

🫢 ARGUMENTS 🫢

  • chip β€” the HTE chip you're adding to the subsystem. That's your main character right there πŸ‘‘

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

So here's the vibe: this is what a provider calls to register itself with the HTE subsystem. And the best part? The unregistration is handled automatically when the provider exits. No manual cleanup arc, no messy goodbye episode β€” the devm machinery does it for you. Slay. 🌈

πŸ”₯ RETURN πŸ”₯

  • 0 on success πŸŽ‰
  • a negative error code on failure 😭

ngl if you're writing a provider, this is your girl β€” register, forget about it, let devm handle the breakup πŸ’€

That's the whole page, bestie β€” filed under ./drivers/hte in the Kernel API Manual, dated October 2026, and yes the footer says devm_hte_register_chip(9) too because the page knows its own name πŸ§šπŸ’œ periodt.
