genpd_complete(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… genpd_complete(9) πŸ’…

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ this one's a tiny lil function but she's important, trust. no cap.


🌸 NAME 🌸

genpd_complete β€” literally completes the power transition of a device that lives in a power domain. that's the whole vibe. πŸ’–


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void genpd_complete (struct device *dev );

that's it. one arg. no return value (she's void, she gives nothing back and honestly? iconic). πŸ‘‘


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • dev β€” the device whose transition we're completing. like, the main character of this whole operation 🫢

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so what she actually does: she completes a power transition of a device β€” specifically during a system-wide power transition, so like the big group-chat-wide event, not just a lil one-on-one runtime thing β€” and she does it under the assumption that the device's pm_domain field points to the domain member of an object of type struct generic_pm_domain representing a power domain consisting of I/O devices.

read that again. it's giving "trust me bro, that pointer is valid." 😭 so like, if you're calling this, your pm_domain better be pointing at the right thing, because she's operating on the assumption it does. no vibe check built in, no cap. 🌈

like… that's the whole friend group, bestie. go read them too, iykyk 🧚


πŸ’€ reminder: the description said "under the assumption" β€” she's not checking your pointer for you. that's on you. periodt.

and that's a wrap, bestie! πŸŽ€ this page came from ./drivers/pmdomain (the source, slay) and it's dated October 2026, and you'll find it filed under genpd_complete(9) in your friendly neighborhood kernel man pages. mwah πŸ’‹πŸ¦‹πŸ’œ
