format_value_ccm(9)

💅 format_value_ccm — Kernel API Manual edition, bestie 🎀

okay so real talk, this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual, and it's about writing a number into a buffer using however many bytes you feel like. slay.

✨ NAME ✨

format_value_ccm — Format a value into a buffer, using a specified number of bytes (i.e. maybe writing value X into a 4 byte buffer, or maybe into a 12 byte buffer), as per the SPU CCM spec.

like, literally exactly that. no cap. 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void format_value_ccm (unsigned int val , u8 *buf , u8 len );

that's the whole vibe check right there 💖

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• val — the value to write (up to max of unsigned int). so like, big energy, but not infinite energy 👑
• buf — (pointer to) buffer to write the value. this is where the magic lands ✨
• len — number of bytes to use (0 to 255). yes, 0 is a legal value here, don't come for me 🙈

go read those too fr fr, they're all in the same ./drivers/crypto/bcm fam and they're iconic in their own right 💀
