es58x_timestamp_to_ns(9)

💅 es58x_timestamp_to_ns — the kernel API page, but make it make sense

okay so bestie, this is a kernel API manual page for es58x_timestamp_to_ns(9), and no, that is not a typo, that is literally the whole name 💖

---

✨ NAME ✨

es58x_timestamp_to_ns — converts a timestamp value that came off an ES58X device into nanoseconds. that's it, that's the job 🎀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

u64 es58x_timestamp_to_ns (u64 timestamp );

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• timestamp — the timestamp you got from an ES58X device. it's a u64, it's coming in hot, and it is not in nanoseconds yet (spoiler for the next section) 🙈

---

💫 DESCRIPTION 💫

So here's the tea ☕ the timestamp that arrives from ES58X is expressed in multiples of 0.5 microseconds. cute, but not what we want.

This function converts it into nanoseconds. that's the whole glow-up. no cap, that's literally it 💅

---

👑 RETURN 👑

The timestamp value, now in nanoseconds. iconic. periodt ✨
