π devm_regmap_init_sdw(9) π
okay bestie, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's literally all about one little function that sets you up with a managed register map over SoundWire. lowkey iconic, highkey useful. let's get into it π«Ά
β¨ NAME β¨
devm_regmap_init_sdw β initialise a managed register map. that's it, that's the vibe π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
devm_regmap_init_sdw (sdw , config );
like, that's the whole call. two arguments, no drama π
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
sdwβ the device you're gonna be interacting with, bestie. that's your main character right there πconfigβ the configuration for the register map. yes, you gotta hand over the settings, no cap π
π DESCRIPTION π
so here's the tea: the return value will be an ERR_PTR on error, or a valid pointer to a struct regmap if everything slays. π₯
and the best part? the regmap gets automatically freed by the device management code. not me having to manually clean up β we love a self-cleaning situation, fr fr β¨π§
no cap: it's managed, so the device management code handles the freeing for you. periodt.
