πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

✨ i3c_master_do_daa_ext πŸ’…

okay so bestie, welcome to the i3c_master_do_daa_ext(9) page β€” part of the Kernel API Manual, and honestly? kind of iconic. this is the extended version of Dynamic Address Assignment, and yes the "extended" is doing a lot of work here πŸŽ€


🌸 NAME 🌸

i3c_master_do_daa_ext β€” Dynamic Address Assignment (extended version) ✨


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

int i3c_master_do_daa_ext (struct i3c_master_controller *master , bool
rstdaa );

like, that's the whole vibe-check entry point right there πŸ‘‘


πŸ’– ARGUMENTS πŸ’–

  • master β€” the controller. your main character, fr fr πŸ’…
  • rstdaa β€” a bool telling you whether to first perform a Reset of Dynamic Addresses (RSTDAA). think of it as the "do i need to wipe the slate first?" switch 🧹

πŸ”₯ DESCRIPTION πŸ”₯

so what does it do? it performs Dynamic Address Assignment, with optional support for System Hibernation β€” and that optional part is when rstdaa is true 😌

here's the lowkey important part: after System Hibernation, Dynamic Addresses can have been reassigned at boot time to different values. yes, they can just... change on you. rude, but okay 🫠

a simple strategy is followed to handle that, no cap:

  1. Perform a Reset of Dynamic Addresses (RSTDAA) 🧼
  2. Follow it up with the normal DAA procedure β€” which has provision for reassigning addresses that differ from the previously recorded addresses πŸ”

that's it. simple strategy, big energy. periodt πŸ’œ


⭐ RETURN ⭐

  • a 0 in case of success πŸŽ‰
  • a negative error code otherwise 😭
