💅 mlx90632_perform_measurement_burst(9) 💅

okay bestie, so this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual (the truncated title up top reads mlx90632_per...rement_burst, which is just the long function name doing its little ellipsis thing, no cap) ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

mlx90632_perform_measurement_burst — trigger and retrieve the current measurement cycle when you're in step sleep mode 🎀

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int mlx90632_perform_measurement_burst (struct mlx90632_data *data );

---

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• data — a pointer to a mlx90632_data object that's holding all the regmap information. it's giving "the whole vibe lives in here" 🫶

---

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

so this function literally performs a measurement and then hands you back 2 as the measurement cycle position — that's the position reported by the sensor itself, not something we made up 💅

here's the thing though: this is a blocking function. the way it blocks depends on the sensor refresh rate, so the amount of time you're sitting there waiting is literally tied to how fast your sensor is refreshing 😭 plan accordingly, bestie.

ngl the blocking behavior is real — don't call this expecting it to return instantly, the refresh rate is in charge here 🙈

that's the whole page, periodt. this little icon came from ./drivers/iio/temperature in the Kernel API Manual, dated October 2026 — ily, go read the source 💜🧚
