mipi_dsi_gen...te_seq_multi(9)
β¨ NAME β¨
mipi_dsi_generic_write_seq_multi β bestie, this one transmits data using a generic write packet π
So the page header says mipi_dsi_gen...te_seq_multi(9) (yes the title is literally truncated with dots, that's just how the Kernel API Manual prints it, no cap) and the real function name is the full mipi_dsi_generic_write_seq_multi. Same icon, different wig π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
mipi_dsi_generic_write_seq_multi (ctx , seq... );
That's the whole vibe. ctx first, then the seq... variadic situation π¦
π ARGUMENTS π
ctxβ the context for multiple DSI transactions. It's giving "keep track of my whole little journey" energy β¨seqβ the buffer containing the payload. This is the actual stuff you're sending out into the world, main character payload fr fr π
π DESCRIPTION π
Okay so this macro will print errors for you β like, it handles the reporting, you don't have to ππ«Ά β and the error handling is optimized for callers that call this multiple times in a row. So if you're looping through a bunch of these, that's literally the scenario it was built for. Obsessed. It ate. π

Ngl the header and footer on this page are the truncated mipi_dsi_gen...te_seq_multi(9) situation β don't come for me, that's what the manual prints π
Okay that's the whole page bestie, ily, go write your DSI packets responsibly β¨π¦π
