hda_get_input_pin_label(9) 💖✨

okay so welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for hda_get_input_pin_label(9) — manual name folded in near the top like a little name tag, bestie 🫶. This is the lore.

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

hda_get_input_pin_label — give a label for the given input pin. That's it, that's the name, periodt 💅.

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

const char * hda_get_input_pin_label (struct hda_codec *codec , const
       struct auto_pin_cfg_item *item , hda_nid_t pin , bool check_location );

---

🧠 ARGUMENTS 🧠

• codec — the HDA codec
• item — ping config item to refer
• pin — the pin NID
• check_location — flag to add the jack location prefix

---

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

When check_location is true, the function checks the pin location for mic and line-in pins, and set an appropriate prefix like "Front", "Rear", "Internal".

bestie note: check_location is the little switch that says “add the jack location prefix” — and when it's true, you get those location labels for mic and line-in pins. iconic 🔥
