🌸 NAME 🌸

okay so bestie, welcome to the input_register_handler(9) page from the Kernel API Manual ✨ this one is literally: input_register_handler — register a new input handler 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

the signature is exactly this, no cap:

int input_register_handler (struct input_handler *handler );

that's the whole synopsis, periodt 🫶

💅 ARGUMENTS 💅

  • handler (struct input_handler *) — handler to be registered 👑 that's the main character right there.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So this function registers a new input handler (aka an interface) for the input devices in the system, and then it attaches that handler to all input devices that are compatible with the handler. It's giving matchmaker energy for handlers and devices, and compatibility is the vibe check 😭💖
