devm_regmap_init_ac97(9)

💅 devm_regmap_init_ac97(9) — like, the AC'97 register map starter pack ✨

okay so bestie, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual (devm_regmap_init_ac97(9)), and it's literally the glow-up tutorial for getting an AC'97 register map up and running. no cap, it's short but it ate. 🎀

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

devm_regmap_init_ac97 — Initialise AC'97 register map 💖

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

devm_regmap_init_ac97 (ac97 , config );

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• ac97 — the Device that will be interacted with 🫶 (yes, that's the whole vibe)
• config — Configuration for register map 👑

---

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

so here's the tea ☕ — the return value will be an ERR_PTR on error, or a valid pointer to a struct regmap. that's it, that's the deal. 🔥

and the best part? the regmap will be automatically freed by the device management code. not me getting memory cleanup for free 😭💅 iconic behaviour, honestly. no manual free, no stress, main character energy only.

lowkey a reminder that the devm_ ones are the ones that clean up after themselves — that's literally the whole point, iykyk 💅

and that's the page, bestie!! this one came from ./include/linux, dated October 2026, and it's filed under devm_regmap_init_ac97(9) in the Kernel API Manual. go forth and initialise ur register maps, you absolute king/queen/monarch 🌟👑💜
