✨ devm_reset_c...ol_array_get(9) ✨

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual — yes bestie, the real one, the kernel docs, and honestly? it's giving "short but iconic". it's about devm_reset_control_array_get, and we're gonna get into it 💅

🎀 NAME 🎀

devm_reset_control_array_get — the resource managed reset control array get. that's the whole name, no cap. it gets you a reset control array, and it's resource managed, which is the devm_ part doing its little main character thing 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct reset_control * devm_reset_control_array_get (struct device *dev
, enum reset_control_flags flags );

literally just two arguments, bestie. that's it. look at her go ✨

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • dev — the device that requests the list of reset controls. like, who's asking for the resets? it's this guy. this device. the requester 💖
  • flags — whether reset controls are shared, optional, acquired. that's the whole vibe of the flags parameter right there 🔥

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

okay so here's the tea on the reset control array APIs ☕ — they're intended for a list of resets that just have to be asserted or deasserted, without any requirements on the order. none. zero. order doesn't matter here, she's flexible like that 🌈

and the return? slay:

Returns pointer to allocated reset_control on success or error on failure 💀 — so like, you either get a pointer to the allocated reset_control, or you get an error. no in-between, no "it's complicated". periodt 🎀

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

get comfy, because this list is long and honestly we love her for it 👑

Kernel file ./drivers/reset/core.c — that's the home base, the mothership, go read it 🧚

like, that's the whole friend group right there 😭 every single one of them, all present and accounted for, iykyk 🦋

ngl bestie, if you're asserting a bunch of resets in some specific precious order, this API is not the one — it explicitly doesn't care about order. read the room 💅

and that's the page!! mwah 💖 this little icon came out of ./drivers/reset, dated October 2026, and it's filed under devm_reset_c...ol_array_get(9) — go forth and manage your resources responsibly, bestie, the kernel believes in you 🫶✨🎀
