πŸ’… goodix_send_cfg β€” the "send the config to the touchscreen" girly ✨

Okay bestie, gather round, because this is a kernel API page β€” specifically goodix_send_cfg(9) from the Kernel API Manual β€” and it's honestly way less scary than it sounds. The vibe? It writes firmware config to the device. That's it. That's the whole plot. πŸŽ€


🌸 NAME 🌸

goodix_send_cfg β€” write fw config to device πŸ’–

Literally what it says on the tin, no cap. It sends config firmware over to the device.

int goodix_send_cfg (struct goodix_ts_data *ts , const u8 *cfg , int len );

It returns an int, bestie. Iconic. 🫢


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

Three args, all of them main characters in their own way:

  • ts β€” the goodix_ts_data pointer πŸ‘‘ your touchscreen's whole identity, lowkey.
  • cfg β€” the config firmware to write to the device 🌈 this is the actual payload, the moment, the reason we're all here.
  • len β€” the config data length πŸ“ how much of that config data we're working with.
