ice_dpll_input_direction(9)

🌸 NAME 🌸

okay so bestie, this is ice_dpll_input_direction(9) from the Kernel API Manual, and it’s literally the callback for get input pin direction. Not me being dramatic — that’s the whole job title. It’s giving tiny callback with main character energy 💅✨.

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

int ice_dpll_input_direction (const struct dpll_pin *pin , void *pin_priv , const struct dpll_device *dpll , void *dpll_priv , enum dpll_pin_direction *direction , struct netlink_ext_ack *extack );

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

bestie, here’s the cast — every single one matters:

• pin — pointer to a pin.
• pin_priv — private data pointer passed on pin registration.
• dpll — registered dpll pointer.
• dpll_priv — private data pointer passed on dpll registration.
• direction — holds input pin direction.
• extack — error reporting.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so this is a Dpll subsystem callback. It’s the handler for getting the direction of an input pin. That’s the vibe: it gets the input pin direction, no cap. 🫶

🔥 RETURN 🔥

• 0 - success

periodt. 0 means success, and that’s the return bullet this page gives us. 💀✨
