💅 iio_gts_all_avail_scales — the "show me every scale you got" helper

okay so picture this: it's a Kernel API Manual moment (yes bestie, that's the manual name, we're in the big leagues now) and this little function is out here doing the lord's work — it's the helper for listing all the available scales. literally its whole personality. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

iio_gts_all_avail_scales — helper for listing all available scales 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int iio_gts_all_avail_scales (struct iio_gts *gts , const int **vals ,
int *type , int *length );

like, that's the whole signature. no cap, that's it. 💅

👑 ARGUMENTS 👑

  • gts — the gain time scale descriptor 💖 this is the main character, the thing you're asking about
  • vals — the returned array of supported scales ✨ this is where the good stuff gets handed back to you
  • type — type of returned scale values 🎀 tells you what kind of scale values you just got
  • length — amount of returned values in array 🌸 so you know how many you're actually dealing with

⭐ RETURN ⭐

it hands you back a value suitable to be returned from read_avail, or a negative error 😭 (so, like, either slay or nope — nothing in between)
