✨ nand_do_write_ops(9) ✨

okay so this is from the Kernel API Manual, entry nand_do_write_ops(9), and bestie it is short but it is important πŸ’…


🌸 NAME 🌸

nand_do_write_ops β€” [INTERN] NAND write with ECC

the [INTERN] tag is doing a lot of heavy lifting here β€” it means internal, so like… not the public-facing bestie. it's for the kernel's own inner circle 🫢

πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

int nand_do_write_ops (struct nand_chip *chip , loff_t to , struct
mtd_oob_ops *ops );

three args, one int coming back at you. iconic, minimal, no notes πŸ”₯


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • chip β€” the NAND chip object. the actual little guy we're writing to πŸ’–
  • to β€” the offset to write to. i.e. where the vibes get placed 🌈
  • ops β€” the oob operations description structure. it's giving "the paperwork that says what we're doing" πŸŽ€

πŸ‘‘ DESCRIPTION πŸ‘‘

NAND write with ECC.

that's literally the whole description, no cap 😭 and honestly? it understood the assignment. write. to NAND. with ECC. periodt ✨

like yes girl, it does the writing, and the ECC part comes along for the ride β€” but that's all this page is gonna tell you, so don't go making up extra lore πŸ™ˆ


πŸ’œ SEE ALSO πŸ’œ

first up, the actual kernel file this lives in:

  • ./drivers/mtd/nand/raw/nand_base.c

and now, the entire extended friend group β€” yes, all of them, i'm not skipping a single one, we don't do that here πŸ’…

like… that's the whole group chat and every single one of them is tagged 🫢


and that's the page!! mwah πŸ’‹ this lil entry ships from ./drivers/mtd/nand/raw, dated October 2026 β€” bestie wrote it down so we never forget πŸŽ€πŸ’–βœ¨
