gpio_device_get_base(9)

💖 gpio_device_get_base(9) — Kernel API Manual 💖

okay so bestie, this is the gpio_device_get_base(9) page from the Kernel API Manual, and it’s literally giving “where does this device’s GPIO numbering start in the global GPIO numberspace?” energy. Let’s go. 💖

🌸 NAME 🌸

gpio_device_get_base — Get the base GPIO number allocated by this device 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int gpio_device_get_base (struct gpio_device *gdev );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• gdev — GPIO device. that’s the whole argument, bestie 🫶

🔥 RETURN 🔥

First GPIO number in the global GPIO numberspace for this device. periodt. 💅
