lwmi_events_notify(9)

🌸 NAME 🌸

lwmi_events_notify — call functions for the notifier call chain. This is the lwmi_events_notify(9) page from the Kernel API Manual, and yes bestie, we're doing this. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void lwmi_events_notify (struct wmi_device *wdev , union acpi_object
       *obj );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• wdev — the parent WMI device of the driver. It's giving "who's your parent device, bestie". 🫶
• obj — an ACPI object passed by the registered WMI Event. That's the event's little payload moment. ✨

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

okay so what this does is validate the WMI event data, then notify all registered drivers of the event and its output. That's the whole main character move: vibe check the event data first, then let every registered driver know about the event and what came out of it. No cap. 🔥

🔥 RETURN 🔥

Returns 0 on success, or an error code. That's it. If it's not 0, something went sideways and you get an error code instead. 💀
