πŸ’– inv_icm42600_setup β€” check and setup chip πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ this one's a lil kernel function from the IIO/IMU universe and honestly? it's giving "small but does the vibes check". let's get into it 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

two args, one int coming back at you. iconic behavior honestly ✨


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • st β€” the driver's internal state πŸ’– like its inner world, its whole vibe, everything it remembers about itself
  • bus_setup β€” a callback for setting up the bus-specific registers 🌈 yeah, it's a function you hand over so this thing can poke the bus in whatever way that particular bus needs, iykyk
