fdt_find_add_string_(9)

💖 NAME 💖

Bestie, welcome to the fdt_find_add_string_(9) page 💅 the whole vibe is fdt_find_add_string_ — find or allocate a string. That's it, that's the name, and honestly it ate ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

The signature is giving main-character energy, and it goes exactly like this:

int fdt_find_add_string_ (void *fdt , const char *s , int slen , int
       *allocated );

No cap, that's the whole synopsis 🎀

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• fdt — pointer to the device tree to check/adjust 🌈
• s — string to find/add 🦋
• slen — literally -- undescribed -- in the manual 😭 bestie, we do not invent lore, we just report it
• allocated — set to 0 if the string was found, 1 if not found and so allocated. The page also says: “Ignored if can_assume(NO_ROLLBACK) return offset of string in the string table (whether found or added)” 👑 keep that exact energy, okay?
