okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual entry for ljca_transfer(9) β€” yes that's the whole title, this page is literally about one function and she's a whole vibe. buckle up πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

ljca_transfer β€” issue a LJCA command and wait for a response 🫢

like, you send a command, and then you wait. patient queen behavior. no cap. ⏳


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int ljca_transfer (struct ljca_client *client , u8 cmd , const u8 *obuf
, u8 obuf_len , u8 *ibuf , u8 ibuf_len );

that's the signature, copy it exactly diva, don't freestyle it πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • client β€” the ljca client device πŸ’– the main character of this whole operation ngl
  • cmd β€” the command that's getting sent to the device, periodt ✨
  • obuf β€” the buffer you're sending over to the device. it can be NULL if you don't need to transmit any data with this command, super chill of you honestly πŸ™ˆ
  • obuf_len β€” how big that outgoing buffer is. heads up bestie: it should be 0 when obuf is NULL β€” them's the rules ⚠️
  • ibuf β€” any data that comes back with the response gets copied in here πŸŽ€ it can be NULL if you don't care about the response data, no pressure, live your truth
  • ibuf_len β€” must be initialized to the input buffer size β€” like actually initialize it, don't leave it unset, that's not the vibe fr fr πŸ’€

⭐ RETURN ⭐

on success you get the actual length of the response data πŸ”₯ (a real number, not vibes). on errors? you get a negative value 😭 so always check, bestie, always check.
