📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

🎀 NAME 🎀

issei_heci_hw_reset — bestie, this one resets the fw via the heci csr register. that's the whole vibe ✨

okay so quick lil context before we dive in: this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and the star of the show is issei_heci_hw_reset(9). she's a function. she resets firmware. she's lowkey iconic for it 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int issei_heci_hw_reset (struct issei_device *idev , bool enable );

that's her signature, no cap — returns an int, takes a device pointer and a bool 🫶

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • idev — the device structure. like, the actual device we're doing this whole reset thing on 🦋
  • enable — this one's about whether interrupts should be enabled after the reset. so: should interrupts be enabled after reset? that's the question she's answering 💖

💜 RETURN 💜

0 on success, and an error code otherwise. that's it. that's the whole return contract, periodt ✨

fr fr, check that return value — 0 means slay, anything else means something went sideways 😭

👑 SEE ALSO 👑
