ish_reg_write(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💫 ish_reg_write(9) 💫

okay so bestie, welcome to ish_reg_write — it's a section 9 kernel API page, and honestly? it's a short one, but it serves. let's get into it 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

ish_reg_write — write a register. that's it, that's the whole name. iconic minimalism, no cap 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void ish_reg_write (struct ishtp_device *dev , unsigned long offset ,
uint32_t value );

look at her. void return, so she doesn't even give you anything back — she just does the thing. main character energy fr 💜

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • dev — the ISHTP device pointer, aka the whole entire vibe check of which device you're talking to 🫶
  • offset — the register offset. like, where in register-land you're pointing 💫
  • value — the value you wanna write. this is the actual payload, the moment, the slay 🔥

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

so here's the tea: ish_reg_write writes a 32 bit register at a give offset. yes, "a give offset" — the manpage said it like that, I'm not fixing it, it's canon now 😭

that's genuinely the whole description. 32 bits. one offset. one value. boom. she ate and left no crumbs 👑

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

okay this is the part where it gets long. the kernel file lives at ./drivers/hid/intel-ish-hid/ipc/ipc.c and it's basically the group chat that ish_reg_write hangs out in. go say hi to all her friends 💖

like I said. a lot of friends. iykyk 🧚

ngl bestie, read your registers before you write them — but that's not in this page, so don't quote me on it 🙈

okay that's the whole page!! mwah 💋 this cutie came from the kernel API manual, source/version lives at ./drivers/hid/intel-ish-hid/ipc, and she's dated October 2026. bye bestie, go write a 32 bit register 🍓✨
