💫 dwc2_hsotg_initep(9) — the Kernel API Manual glow-up 💫

okay bestie, so this one's from the Kernel API Manual and it's literally called dwc2_hsotg_initep — it's the little function that gets your endpoint ready for its main character era ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

dwc2_hsotg_initep — initialise a single endpoint 🎀 (yes, one endpoint. we're being specific here.)

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void dwc2_hsotg_initep (struct dwc2_hsotg *hsotg , struct dwc2_hsotg_ep
*hs_ep , int epnum , bool dir_in );

no return value, she just does it 💅

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

  • hsotg — the device state. like, the whole vibe of the device, all bundled up 🦋
  • hs_ep — the endpoint that's about to get initialised. this is her moment 💖
  • epnum — the endpoint number 🔢
  • dir_in — true if the direction is in. so, is she going in? that's the question 🌈

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so what she does: she initialises the given endpoint — and this happens as part of the probe and device state creation — so it can be handed over to the gadget driver 🎁✨

she sets up the endpoint name, any direction information, and all the other state that may be required. basically she gets the endpoint all dressed up and presentable before the gadget driver meets her 🎀👑

ngl this is the "getting ready in the group chat mirror" phase of the endpoint's life. no cap, it matters.
