nandc_set_read_loc_first(9)

✨ nandc_set_read_loc_first ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual entry for nandc_set_read_loc_first(9) — yes the title is the same as the function name, we love a self-titled era 👑

This one is a little helper that sets the read location first register. Think of it as the opening act, the main character of the first half of a two-part situation 🎀 (the other half has its own page, we'll get there).

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void nandc_set_read_loc_first (struct nand_chip *chip, int reg_base,
                               u32 cw_offset, u32 read_size,
                               u32 is_last_read_loc);

No return value, it's a void situation — it does the thing and dips 💅

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• chip — the NAND Private Flash Chip Data. basically the whole vibe of the chip lives in here.
• reg_base — location register base. the starting point for the register we're about to poke.
• cw_offset — code word offset. where in the code word we're pointing.
• read_size — code word read length. how much of that code word we're reading, fr fr.
• is_last_read_loc — is this the last read location? a little yes/no tell for the function. lowkey important.

🧚 DESCRIPTION 🧚

So what does it actually do? This function will set the location register value. that's the whole assignment bestie, no cap 💖

It's giving "quietly essential" — not flashy, but the read location register needs its value and this is the function that handles it. slay.

ngl, if you're here you probably want the pair — first and last. don't leave the other one unread, it's rude 🙈

okay that's the whole page, thanks for coming to my ted talk 💅

sign-off time: this came from the source tree at ./drivers/mtd/nand/raw, dated October 2026 — write that down bestie, it's on the test 🌈⭐ </final>
