gma_i2c_create(9)

✨ NAME ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — section 9, obviously — and say hi to gma_i2c_create. It instantiates an Intel i2c bus using the specified GPIO reg. 💅 That's the whole vibe: make the bus, get it out into the world, iykyk.

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

struct gma_i2c_chan * gma_i2c_create (struct drm_device *dev , const u32
reg , const char *name );

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• dev — the DRM device. main-character device energy.
• reg — the GPIO reg to use. pick the right one, bestie.
• name — the name for this bus. name it something cute but, like, functional.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Creates and registers a new i2c bus with the Linux i2c layer, for use in output probing and control (e.g. DDC or SDVO control functions). obsessed with a bus that does its job. ✨

Possible values for reg include: GPIOA, GPIOB, GPIOC, GPIOD, GPIOE, GPIOF, GPIOG, GPIOH — see PRM for details on how these different busses are used. no cap, the PRM has the lore.
