okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β¨ β yes, the actual Kernel API Manual, we're doing big things today. This page is about mipi_dsi_driver_register_full, and honestly the name alone is a whole journey π«Ά but stick with me, it's lowkey simple.
πΈ NAME πΈ
mipi_dsi_driver_register_full β register a driver for DSI devices π
Like, you have a DSI driver and you want the kernel to know about it? This is the function. It's giving "introduce your driver to the group chat" energy fr fr.
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
int mipi_dsi_driver_register_full (struct mipi_dsi_driver *drv , struct
module *owner );
yes the line break in there is canon, don't come for me π
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
drvβ the DSI driver structure π like, the driver itself, the main character of this operationownerβ the owner module π you know, whose module this bad boy belongs to
β RETURN β
0 on success, or a negative error code on failure π
so like, check it. 0 = slay, negative = something went sideways, go read your errno iykyk.
π₯ SEE ALSO π₯
okay this list is long but bestie every single one of these is a friend of the family, so we're naming them all π
