dwc2_core_init(9)

💖 dwc2_core_init(9) — the kernel API manual, bestie edition 💖

okay so picture this: you're deep in the kernel, in the Kernel API Manual, and you've got this one function that's basically the main character of the DWC_otg controller setup arc. yeah. that one. let's get into it 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

dwc2_core_init — literally initializes the DWC_otg controller registers and gets the core all dolled up and ready for device mode or host mode operation 💅

like it's not just "poke a register," it's the whole glow-up. the core wakes up, the registers get set, and it's ready to serve either role. versatile icon behavior only 👑

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

int dwc2_core_init (struct dwc2_hsotg *hsotg , bool initial_setup );

it returns an int, bestie. write that down. 📝

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• hsotg — the programming view of the DWC_otg controller. this is your whole controller, the vibe, the entire situation. you hand it over and the function does its thing with it 🌸
• initial_setup — a bool, and the tea is simple: if it's true, then this is the first init for this instance. first time's the charm, no cap. if it's not true, then it's not the first init, and that's also valid 💖
