💖 framer_init(9) — Kernel API Manual 💖

okay bestie, we are so in the Kernel API Manual right now, and this page is all about framer_init(9). it's giving framer pre-game ritual energy, and honestly? iconic. 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

framer_init — the framer's internal initialization moment before framer operation actually starts.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int framer_init (struct framer *framer );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• framer — the framer returned by framer_get. yes bestie, that one. 💅

💫 DESCRIPTION 💫

okay so what does this actually do? framer_init is how the framer's driver gets to perform framer internal initialization — we're talking PLL block powering, clock initialization, or anything required by the framer to perform the start of operation. ✨

bestie, this is a must: call framer_init before framer_power_on. no skipping ahead, no cap. 🚨

🔥 RETURN 🔥

0 if it worked — successful, bestie — and a negative error code otherwise. that's the whole vibe check. 💖
