✨ devm_of_led_get(9) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual πŸ’– this is the page for devm_of_led_get, and honestly? it's giving "let the kernel clean up after you" and we are obsessed 🫢


🌸 NAME 🌸

devm_of_led_get β€” resource-managed request of a LED device πŸ’‘βœ¨


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

struct led_classdev * devm_of_led_get (struct device *dev , int index );

that's the whole vibe, no cap πŸŽ€


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • dev β€” the LED consumer πŸ‘€ like, the device that's gonna use the LED
  • index β€” index of the LED to obtain in the consumer πŸ”’ (which one you want, bestie)

πŸ’… DESCRIPTION πŸ’…

so here's the tea β˜• β€” the device node of the device gets parsed to find the requested LED device πŸ”βœ¨. and the LED device that comes back from this function is automatically released on driver detach πŸ˜­πŸ‘‘ like the kernel literally does the cleanup for you, main character energy fr fr.

it returns a pointer to a LED device, or ERR_PTR(errno) on failure πŸ’€ β€” so yeah, do the vibe check on that return value, iykyk.

ngl, always check for ERR_PTR(errno) β€” a failure is a failure, and pretending it isn't is not the move πŸ™ˆ
