doc_read_page_finish(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 doc_read_page_finish(9) — from the Kernel API Manual, bestie ✨

Okay so like, welcome to the glow-up of doc_read_page_finish(9), straight out of the Kernel API Manual. Buckle up, this one's short but it's important 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

doc_read_page_finish — the little function that ends the reading of a flash page. That's it. That's the whole job. And it does it flawlessly 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void doc_read_page_finish (struct docg3 *docg3 );

Like, no return value, no drama, just vibes and a pointer. Iconic behavior honestly 👑

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • docg3 — the device 🫶 that's it, that's the whole argument description, she's low-maintenance and we respect that

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

So here's the tea ☕ — this function has a side effect, and no, not the scary kind. It resets the chip selector to 0 ✨

Why does that matter? Because it makes sure that after every single read operation, floor 0 is the one that's selected. Every. Time. No cap 💅

And the reason that's so slay? If the system halts 😭 (which, rude, but okay), the reboot will boot on floor 0 — which is exactly where the IPL lives 🏠✨ So basically this function is out here securing the whole reboot situation and asking for zero credit. Main character energy fr fr 🌈
