πŸ’… mcb_device_register(9) πŸ’…

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ β€” this is the page for mcb_device_register(9), a.k.a. the moment your little mcb_device gets officially introduced to the world. it's giving debutante ball for kernel structs πŸŽ€


🌸 NAME 🌸

mcb_device_register β€” register a mcb_device πŸ‘‘

like, actually register it. not "register it in your notes" register it. the real one. πŸ’…


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int mcb_device_register (struct mcb_bus *bus , struct mcb_device *dev );

no cap, that's the whole signature. two pointers, one int back. slay. 🫢


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • bus β€” the mcb_bus that the device belongs to. think of it as the friend group your device is joining. πŸ«‚
  • dev β€” the mcb_device itself. the main character. πŸ‘‘

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

registers a specific mcb_device at a mcb_bus β€” and at the system itself too, bestie. so it's not just a bus thing, it's a whole-system thing. both. at once. multi-tasking icon behaviour. ⭐

lowkey that's it. highkey that's the whole function. it takes your dev, ties it to its bus, and makes it known to the system. periodt. πŸ”₯
