💅 devm_reset_control_get_exclusive_deasserted — like, the whole vibe ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual 🫶 this is one of those little devm_ helpers that makes your driver's whole life easier, and honestly? it's giving "I handle the cleanup so you don't have to" energy. periodt. 👑

✨ NAME ✨

devm_reset_control_get_exclusive_deasserted — resource managed reset_control_get_exclusive() + reset_control_deassert() 🌸

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

struct reset_control * devm_reset_control_get_exclusive_deasserted
(struct device *dev , const char *id );

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • dev — the device that's gonna get reset by the controller 💜
  • id — the reset line name, iykyk 🌈

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

So what this icon actually does: it's the managed version of reset_control_get_exclusive + reset_control_deassert. two-for-one, we love a bundle deal. 💅

And here's the slay part — for any reset controllers that come back from this function, reset_control_assert + reset_control_put get called automatically when the driver detaches. not you having to remember. not you writing cleanup paths at 2am. the kernel's got you, bestie. 😭🫶

if you want the full deets, go see reset_control_get_exclusive — it's literally the source of truth. ⭐
