💖 ishtp_get_hid_descriptor(9) 💖

okay so real talk, this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual and it's literally called ishtp_get_hid_descriptor — iconic name, no notes. come sit with me, bestie, this one's short and sweet 🍓

✨ NAME ✨

ishtp_get_hid_descriptor — bestie, it Gets the hid descriptor. that's the whole vibe. 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int ishtp_get_hid_descriptor (struct ishtp_cl *hid_ishtp_cl , int index );

like, it returns an int, it takes your client and an index, and that's it. slay. 💅

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • hid_ishtp_cl — your client instance, aka the whole main character of this call 🫶
  • index — the index into the hid_descr array. yes, into the array, so pick which one you want, bestie ✨

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

okay so picture this: it's a helper function (a lil sidekick, highkey underrated) whose whole job is to send a request to firmware to get the HID descriptor of a device. that's it. that's the function. lowkey obsessed with how straightforward that is 💖

like, it's giving "just ask the firmware nicely and it'll hand over the descriptor." no cap. 🌈

👑 RETURN 👑

  • 0 — success, we ate, everything's fine ✨
  • non zero — error, and honestly? 😭 that's it, that's the whole return value situation, fr fr
