kempld_write8(9)

👑 kempld_write8(9) 👑

okay so bestie, welcome to the kempld_write8(9) page from the Kernel API Manual — it’s giving tiny-but-mighty hardware helper energy ✨. This one writes an 8 bit register, and it’s literally one function, so let’s get into it 💅.

✨ NAME ✨

kempld_write8 — write 8 bit register.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void kempld_write8 (struct kempld_device_data *pld , u8 index , u8 data
);

The return type is void, so it doesn’t hand anything back — it’s just here to do the write 🫶.

💅 ARGUMENTS 💅

• pld — the kempld_device_data structure describing the PLD 🧚.
• index — register index on the chip 🔥.
• data — new register value 🍓.

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

kempld_get_mutex must be called prior to calling this function. That’s the vibe check, bestie: grab the mutex first, then call kempld_write8. Must is doing a lot of work there — no cap 😭.
