geni_se_resources_init(9)
π geni_se_resources_init(9) β from the Kernel API Manual, bestie
okay so picture this: it's a kernel API manual page, it's called geni_se_resources_init(9), and it's literally about waking up a GENI SE device's whole resource situation. let's get into it β¨
β¨ NAME β¨
geni_se_resources_init β the girl whose entire job is initializing resources for a GENI SE device. she's the setup bestie. π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
int geni_se_resources_init (struct geni_se *se );
π ARGUMENTS π
seβ a pointer to thegeni_sestructure, i.e. the actual GENI SE device being represented. that's the main character right there π
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
so what does this function actually do? it initializes all the various resources the GENI Serial Engine (SE) device needs to function, and honestly it's giving project manager energy:
- it handles the clock resources β that's the core clock and the SE clock, both of them, no skipping π
- it sorts out the interconnect paths for communication
- it retrieves the optional and mandatory clock resources (yes, both kinds, she's thorough)
- it adds an OF-based operating performance point (OPP) table
- it sets up the interconnect paths with default bandwidths
- and to top it all off, it sets a flag called
has_oppto indicate whether OPP support is actually available for the device π
like, she does a lot. no cap.
