ili922x_read(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

✨ NAME ✨

ili922x_read β€” read a register from the display πŸ’…

okay so bestie, quick vibe check: this is a kernel API manual page, section 9, and it's all about pulling one little register value out of an ili922x display and dropping it in your output variable. that's it, that's the whole errand. iconic behavior, no notes. πŸŽ€


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int ili922x_read (struct spi_device *spi , u8 reg , u16 *rx );

literally the whole signature, character for character, don't come for me 🫢


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • spi β€” the spi device, aka your main character. you hand it over so the function knows which display it's talking to πŸ’«
  • reg β€” the offset of the register to be read. lowkey the address of the little drawer you're opening πŸ™ˆ
  • rx β€” the output value. this is where the answer gets dropped off, so make sure it's pointing somewhere real, bestie β€” it's an output, not an input 😭
