💜 devm_regula...lk_get_const(9) — Kernel API Manual, bestie edition

okay so this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual and it's genuinely so useful once it clicks. the name got truncated in the header (devm_regula...lk_get_const(9)) — that's just the terminal being dramatic and running out of room, the real function is devm_regulator_bulk_get_const 💅

✨ NAME ✨

devm_regulator_bulk_get_const — literally just devm_regulator_bulk_get() but with const data 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int devm_regulator_bulk_get_const (struct device *dev , int
num_consumers , const struct regulator_bulk_data *in_consumers , struct
regulator_bulk_data **out_consumers );

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• dev — the device you're supplying, bestie. that's who gets the regulators.
• num_consumers — how many consumers you're registering. a number. count them.
• in_consumers — the const configuration of consumers. this is the static const one, keep reading 👀
• out_consumers — in_consumers gets copied here, and this is what gets passed to devm_regulator_bulk_get. so it's giving middleman, but like, a necessary one.

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

this is a convenience function, and it's iconic for exactly one reason: it lets your bulk regulator configuration live as "static const" in files. no cap. that's the whole vibe — static const config, out of the way, done 🫶

🔥 RETURN 🔥

0 on success 💖 — or a negative error number on failure 😭
