ljca_event_cb_t(9) β like, the whole vibe check
okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β¨ this one's a function-signature page, aka the "what shape does my callback have to be" page. it's short, it's sweet, it's iconic. let's go π«Ά
β¨ NAME β¨
ljca_event_cb_t β the event callback function signature π like, the actual shape of the function you gotta write if you want in on the event tea.
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
void ljca_event_cb_t (void *context , u8 cmd , const void *evt_data ,
int len );
no cap, that's the whole signature. memorize it, screenshot it, put it on your fyp π
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
contextβ the execution context of whoever registered this callback π it's your little bag of stuff, you know exactly what's in it (or at least you should, bestie π)cmdβ the command from the device for this event π that's au8, so tiny, so preciousevt_dataβ the event data payload β¨ here's your tea, piping hotlenβ the event data payload length β so you know exactly how much tea you're holding
π₯ DESCRIPTION π₯
okay so this is the important bit, listen up π
The callback function is called in interrupt context, and the data payload is only valid during the call. If the user needs later access of the data, it must copy it.
π¨ bestie I cannot stress this enough β that pointer is on borrowed time. the moment your callback returns, evt_data is gone-gone. if you're gonna touch it later, copy it first. no exceptions, periodt. π
