πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… ili922x_write(9) β€” like, the Kernel API Manual page you actually wanna read ✨

okay bestie, so this is ili922x_write, straight out of the Kernel API Manual, and honestly? it's giving "tiny function, big responsibility". it does exactly one thing and it does it iconically: it writes a value into a controller register. no cap. πŸŽ€


🌸 NAME 🌸

ili922x_write β€” write a controller register πŸ’–

like, that's it. that's the whole job. write. a. controller. register. periodt. ✨


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

int ili922x_write (struct spi_device *spi , u8 reg , u16 value );

three args, one int back. lowkey elegant fr fr πŸ’…


πŸ“ ARGUMENTS πŸ“

  • spi β€” a struct spi_device *. yes the whole struct pointer, she's built different 😭 it's the spi device you're talking through, main character energy only.
  • reg β€” a u8, and it's the offset of the register you wanna write to. so you're like "hey, register at this offset? you're getting new content today" 🫢
  • value β€” a u16, and it's literally just the value being written. the payload. the moment. the slay. πŸ’€
