π
dwc2_hsotg_wait_bit_set β a Kernel API Manual moment π
okay bestie, so this page lives in the Kernel API Manual (yes, the kernel has a manual, and yes it's iconic), and it's all about one little function: dwc2_hsotg_wait_bit_set. Buckle up, it's giving "poll a register like your life depends on it" π
β¨ NAME β¨
dwc2_hsotg_wait_bit_set β literally just waits for a bit to be set. that's the whole gig. no cap.
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
int dwc2_hsotg_wait_bit_set (struct dwc2_hsotg *hsotg , u32 offset , u32
mask , u32 timeout );
look at her. four args. very demure, very mindful π«Ά
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
hsotgβ the programming view of the DWC_otg controller. this is your main character struct, the whole vibe check for the controller πoffsetβ the register's offset, aka where the bit/bits are supposed to get set. think of it as the address drop-pin πmaskβ the mask of the bit/bits that must be set. this is the filter, the "only these ones matter" energy βtimeoutβ the timeout to wait. how long you're willing to stand there refreshing before you give up π
π₯ RETURN π₯
0if the bit/bits are set π slay, we love a success-ETIMEDOUTin case of timeout π yeahβ¦ when time runs out, it's over

and that's the page, bestie π this little icon lives in ./drivers/usb/dwc2 and the date stamp on it is October 2026 β so go forth, wait for your bits, and remember: if it times out you get -ETIMEDOUT, not a hug ππ«Ά mwah, bye! π
