get_set_conduit_method(9)

✨ get_set_conduit_method(9) ✨

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, section 9 — yes it's a real manpage name and yes the parentheses-and-number thing is the vibe, just roll with it bestie 💅

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

get_set_conduit_method — the little function that picks whether you're talking to EL2/EL3 over SMC or over HVC. choose-your-own-adventure but for firmware calls 🎀

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int get_set_conduit_method (struct device_node *np );

like, that's it. one arg, one int coming back. clean. minimal. iconic. ✨

---

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• np — a pointer to the device_node structure. that's the whole description, she's brief and she's confident 🫶

---

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

so the whole point of this one: it uses SMC-based functions or HVC-based functions to communicate with EL2/EL3. that's the entire description fr fr — it decides which flavour of firmware chat you're doing, and then you just vibe with it 💀

---

🌈 RETURN 🌈

• returns 0 on success 🎉
• or an error code 😭 (which one? the page does not say, and I'm not out here inventing lore no cap)

---

okay this is the part where the page absolutely goes off — the entire ZynqMP power-management friend group is tagged in the group chat 👑💅
