π NAME π
inv_mpu_aux_read β the read-register function for the i2c auxiliary bus, bestie β¨
Okay so picture this: there's an i2c aux bus, right? And this little icon is the one that does the reading of registers on it. That's the whole vibe. π
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
int inv_mpu_aux_read (const struct inv_mpu6050_state *st , uint8_t addr
, uint8_t reg , uint8_t *val , size_t size );
Look at her. Five params. Main character energy, no cap. π
πΈ ARGUMENTS πΈ
stβ the driver's own internal state, like the driver's little diary of who it is π«Άaddrβ the chip's i2c address, aka where the chip lives on the bus πregβ the chip register address, the exact spot inside the chip we're looking at πvalβ the buffer where the read bytes get stashed π₯sizeβ how many bytes we're reading, literally the count, don't skip this one π
π DESCRIPTION π
Returns 0 on success, and a negative error code otherwise. That's it, that's the whole contract. If you get a negative number back, something went sideways β it's giving "not slay" π
