mipi_dsi_dc...p_mode_multi(9)

💅 mipi_dsi_dcs_enter_sleep_mode_multi(9) 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — yes we're doing kernel docs today, and honestly? iconic of you. this one's a lil' function called mipi_dsi_dcs_enter_sleep_mode_multi and it's giving "put the display to bed" energy. let's get into it 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

mipi_dsi_dcs_enter_sleep_mode_multi — send that DCS ENTER_SLEEP_MODE packet, but make it a group activity 🦋

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void mipi_dsi_dcs_enter_sleep_mode_multi (struct mipi_dsi_multi_context
*ctx );

like, that's the whole signature. she's short, she's sweet, she returns void. no notes 💅

---

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

• ctx — the context for multiple DSI transactions. think of it as the group chat where all your DSI calls hang out and where the error tea gets spilled later 💖

---

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

So basically, this function is like mipi_dsi_dcs_enter_sleep_mode, but it handles errors in a way that makes it super convenient to make several calls in a row. no cap. if you're the kind of person who's firing off a bunch of DCS transactions back-to-back, this is your girl — she deals with the errors so you don't gotta babysit every single call 😭✨

fr fr, "convenient to make several calls in a row" is literally the whole point. she's the multi version. main character energy 👑
