iio_simple_d...event_config(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 iio_simple_dummy_read_event_config — like, is the event even enabled?? (Kernel API Manual, section 9)

okay so bestie, welcome to the iio_simple_dummy_read_event_config(9) page — it's part of the Kernel API Manual and it's literally one tiny function asking one tiny question: is this event turned on or not? 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

iio_simple_dummy_read_event_config — is event enabled? 👀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int iio_simple_dummy_read_event_config (struct iio_dev *indio_dev ,
const struct iio_chan_spec *chan , enum iio_event_type type , enum
iio_event_direction dir );

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

  • indio_dev — the device instance data 🫶 like, the whole vibe of the device itself
  • chan — channel for the event whose state is being queried 📡 the specific channel we're snooping on
  • type — type of the event whose state is being queried 🏷️ what kind of event are we checking
  • dir — direction of the vent whose state is being queried 🧭 (yes the manpage fr says "vent", and honestly? iconic. it means the direction of the event, no cap 💀)

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so what does this actually do? bestie, in the real world this function would normally go query the relevant registers — or peek at a cache — to figure out whether event generation is enabled on the device. 🔍✨ that's the whole assignment. register check or cache check, either way: is the event on or not 💅

✨ SEE ALSO ✨

go read those too, they're the friend group of this function and they all ate 🔥

ngl this one's short but it's a real one — if you're writing a dummy IIO driver and you gotta answer "is the event enabled?", this is the hook, periodt. 💜

byeeee 🦋 this page came from ./drivers/iio/dummy, dated October 2026, and the header up top still says iio_simple_d...event_config(9) because we keep it exact — mwah, go touch a register 💋
