geni_write_fw_revision(9)
π geni_write_fw_revision β a Kernel API Manual moment, bestie β¨
okay so this is geni_write_fw_revision(9), and honestly? she's a tiny little function with main character energy π she shows up, writes two numbers into one register, and leaves. iconic behavior.
β¨ NAME β¨
geni_write_fw_revision β literally just writes the firmware revision. that's it. that's the whole gig π no cap.
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
void geni_write_fw_revision (struct geni_se *se , u16 serial_protocol ,
u16 fw_version );
returns nothing (void), takes three things. simple queen π«Ά
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
seβ a pointer to the serial engine we're concerned about. she's the one getting the update, okay? πserial_protocolβ the serial protocol type,u16flavored πfw_versionβ the QUP firmware version.u16again, matching energy β
π₯ DESCRIPTION π₯
the entire job, fr fr: write the firmware revision and the protocol into the respective register. that's the one sentence and she ate π
no loop, no waiting, no drama β just a register getting blessed with info π

like, the whole squad. go read all of them, iykyk π
ngl this page is short but she's efficient and honestly that's the vibe. no warnings, no exit statuses, no environment variables β just pure register-writing serenity π§
and that's a wrap, bestie! π this little page lives in ./drivers/soc/qcom and it's dated October 2026 β so like, future-coded but make it kernel π mwah, go write some firmware revisions π
