πŸ’… dpseci_open(9) πŸ’…

okay so bestie, welcome to this little corner of the Kernel API Manual. this is the page for dpseci_open, and it's literally the β€œopen a control session for the specified object” move. 🫢


🌸 NAME 🌸

dpseci_open β€” open a control session for the specified object. slay, that's the whole name vibe. ✨


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int dpseci_open (struct fsl_mc_io *mc_io , u32 cmd_flags , int dpseci_id , u16 *token );

πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • mc_io β€” pointer to the MC portal's I/O object; think of it as the portal's little handshake pass πŸ›‚.
  • cmd_flags β€” command flags, and you can pass one or more of 'MC_CMD_FLAG_'; yes bestie, that's the exact spelling.
  • dpseci_id β€” the unique ID for the DPSECI object. no cap, it's how we know which one we're talking to πŸ”₯.
  • token β€” the returned token; keep it safe because you use it in subsequent API calls. this is your backstage pass 🎟️.

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so here's the tea β˜•: dpseci_open opens a control session for an object that's already been created. that object might have been declared statically in the DPL, or it might have been created dynamically β€” either way, this function is the one that gets you a session for it. πŸ’–

it returns a unique authentication token. that token is tied to the specific object ID and to the specific MC portal, so it's not a one-size-fits-all situation. you absolutely must use this token in all subsequent commands for this specific object. periodt. πŸ‘‘


πŸ’€ RETURN πŸ’€

bestie, the original page leaves this section literally empty β€” there are no return details listed here, so I'm not gonna invent any. πŸ™ˆ
