✨ NAME ✨

ks8851_rdreg16_par — read 16 bit register from chip 💅

Okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual entry for ks8851_rdreg16_par(9). This is the little function that goes and reads a 16-bit register from the chip for you. Iconic behavior, no cap. 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

unsigned int ks8851_rdreg16_par (struct ks8851_net *ks , unsigned int reg );

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• ks — the chip information, aka the main character struct that tells you which chip we’re talking about. 👑
• reg — the register address, so you know exactly where to peek. 🎀

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Read a 16bit register from the chip, returning the result. That’s the whole vibe, periodt: you hand over the chip info and a register address, and it comes back with the 16-bit read result. Lowkey useful, highkey essential. ✨
