🌸 devm_regulator_get_enable(9) 🌸

ok so bestie, you found the Kernel API Manual page for devm_regulator_get_enable(9) β€” and honestly? you're gonna be obsessed. it's giving "handled for you, no notes." πŸ’…


✨ NAME ✨

devm_regulator_get_enable β€” resource managed regulator get and enable πŸŽ€


🌈 SYNOPSIS 🌈

int devm_regulator_get_enable (struct device *dev , const char *id );

like, that's the whole vibe. short, sweet, iconic. πŸ‘‘


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • dev β€” the device to supply. the main character, basically. πŸ’–
  • id β€” the supply name or regulator ID. yes bestie, you have to name your regulator. iykyk. πŸŽ€

πŸ’œ DESCRIPTION πŸ’œ

okay so here's what's happening. this function gets and enables the regulator for the duration of the device life-time. that's the whole point β€” you get it, you turn it on, and it just stays handled for you. no cap.

and the way it cleans up after itself?? iconic. regulator_disable and regulator_put are automatically called on driver detach. so you literally don't have to think about it. resource managed devres really said "i gotchu" 🫢✨

if you wanna know more about the underlying mechanics, go see regulator_get and regulator_enable β€” they're the ones doing the actual heavy lifting. 🧚
