π max9271_enable_gpios(9) π
okay so bestie, we're in the Kernel API Manual and today's main character is max9271_enable_gpios(9) β the kernel helper that enables GPIO lines. β¨ it's giving "let there be light" but for GPIO, and honestly? iconic. π
π¦ NAME π¦
max9271_enable_gpios β Enable gpio lines π
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
int max9271_enable_gpios (struct max9271_device *dev , u8 gpio_mask );
π ARGUMENTS π
devβ themax9271device π«Άgpio_maskβ the mask of gpio lines to enable πΈ
π DESCRIPTION π
okay so here's the tea: the gpio_mask parameter shall be assembled using the MAX9271_GPIO* bit values. π§ no improvising, bestie β those exact bit values are the blueprint.
quick reminder that the GPO line is always enabled by default. periodt. π
and the return vibe? it returns 0 on success or a negative error code on failure. so if you get 0, slay; if you get a negative number, that's the kernel saying "not today." π
