of_bcm_voter_get(9)

okay so welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for of_bcm_voter_get(9), bestie 💖 this is a tiny kernel API entry with big main-character energy, and we're gonna read it together like a cozy little group chat. no cap.

✨ NAME ✨

of_bcm_voter_get — gets a bcm voter handle from DT node, periodt 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

here's the signature, bestie — copy it exactly, character for character, because kernel APIs do not play about their punctuation 💅

struct bcm_voter * of_bcm_voter_get (struct device *dev , const char
       *name );

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• dev — device pointer for the consumer device. it's the consumer device's pointer, and yes bestie, it's doing exactly what it says on the label 🫶
• name — name for the bcm voter device. this is the name string for the bcm voter device, iconic ✨

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

okay so here's the tea ☕: this function will match a device_node pointer for the phandle specified in the device DT, and on success it returns a bcm_voter handle. it's giving matchmaker but for device tree nodes, iykyk 💜

Returns a bcm_voter pointer or ERR_PTR on error. And when the matching bcm voter is yet to be found, it returns EPROBE_DEFER — that's the kernel saying "not yet bestie, try again later" 😭.
