nanddev_pos_to_offs(9)

💅 nanddev_pos_to_offs — the Kernel API Manual glow-up

okay so bestie, welcome to the nanddev_pos_to_offs(9) page ✨ this is the little kernel helper that takes a NAND position and hands you back an absolute offset, and honestly? it's giving "small function, big main character energy" 🎀

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

nanddev_pos_to_offs — converts a NAND position into an absolute offset 💖

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

loff_t nanddev_pos_to_offs (struct nand_device *nand , const struct
       nand_pos *pos );

like, that's the whole vibe. struct in, loff_t out, no cap 🫶

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• nand — your NAND device, the whole reason we're here 👑
• pos — the NAND position you want converted, the lil coordinate we're translating bestie 💫

---

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

so what it does is literally right there in the name: it converts pos — a NAND position — into an absolute offset 🌈

that's it. that's the function. it ate and left no crumbs 💅

---

💀 RETURN 💀

it returns the absolute offset ✨

but listen, important caveat bestie, do not skip this part 🙈: pos points to the beginning of a page. so if you actually want to point at some specific offset within that page, you have to adjust the returned offset manually yourself. no automatic mid-page magic here, she's page-aligned and proud 😭

and that's the page!! this whole thing lives in ./include/linux/mtd, dated October 2026, and it's literally the nanddev_pos_to_offs(9) manual — ok bye bestie, go convert some positions, slay 💜🎀
