💅 devm_reset_c...ler_register(9) 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ — yes this is that cute lil' kernel page, the one with the truncated name at the top that looks like somebody fell asleep mid-word. It's devm_reset_c...ler_register(9), and no, the ellipsis isn't a typo, it's just the manpage aesthetic 💀

---

✨ NAME ✨

devm_reset_controller_register — the resource managed version of reset_controller_register() 🎀 like, the one where the kernel cleans up after you so you don't have to. main character energy fr fr.

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int devm_reset_controller_register (struct device *dev , struct
reset_controller_dev *rcdev );

it takes two args and it returns an int, that's the whole vibe. lowkey iconic.

---

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• dev — the device that is registering this reset controller. like, whose name is this controller going under? 👀
• rcdev — a pointer to the initialized reset controller device. key word: initialized, bestie. don't come at it with uninitialized nonsense, the vibes will be off 😭💀

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so here's the whole thing: this is the managed reset_controller_register. 🫶

the way that it works is: for reset controllers registered by this function, reset_controller_unregister is automatically called on driver detach. automated cleanup, no manual teardown, no leftover mess — it's giving responsible adult 🧚✨

and if you want more info, it literally says go see reset_controller_register for more information. so like, this page is the trailer, that page is the movie 💅
