💅 i3c_driver_register_with_owner(9) — the Kernel API Manual glow-up 🎀

okay bestie, so this one is from the Kernel API Manual (the (9) at the end? yeah that's the manual name, iykyk ✨) and it's literally the entry for i3c_driver_register_with_owner. It's short, it's sweet, it's giving "one job, done right" energy. Let's get into it 💖

i3c_driver_register_with_owner — no cap, it registers an I3C device driver. That's the whole vibe. 🦋

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int i3c_driver_register_with_owner (struct i3c_driver *drv , struct module *owner );

like, that's the signature, character for character, don't come for me 🙈

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• drv — the driver you wanna register, bestie. that's the main character right there 👑
• owner — the module that owns this driver. yes, it needs a parent, we love a support system 🫶

---

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

So what does it do? It registers drv to the core. That's it. That's the tweet. Lowkey iconic for how chill it is. ⭐

---

🔥 RETURN 🔥

• 0 — slay, it worked, success ✨
• a negative error core otherwise — not slay, something went sideways 😭 (yes, "error core", that's what the page says, I don't make the rules 💀)
