of_fpga_mgr_get(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… of_fpga_mgr_get(9) β€” like, the kernel API manual, bestie πŸŽ€

okay so real talk, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's about one very specific little function that gets you a reference to an FPGA manager. it's short, it's sweet, it's giving "small but mighty" energy. let's get into it ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

of_fpga_mgr_get β€” literally: given a device node, get a reference to an fpga mgr. that's it. that's the whole vibe. 🫢


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

struct fpga_manager * of_fpga_mgr_get (struct device_node *node );

yes bestie, it returns a struct fpga_manager * and it takes exactly one argument. no cap, that's the entire signature πŸ’…


πŸ“ ARGUMENTS πŸ“

  • node β€” the device node. that's it, that's the whole description. it's a device node. iconic minimalism honestly πŸ‘‘

πŸ”₯ RETURN πŸ”₯

it hands you back an fpga manager struct, or an IS_ERR condition containing an error code. so like… vibe check the return value before you go dereferencing it, mkay? 😭 if it's an error pointer, it's an error pointer. do not pass go, do not collect $200.


🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

bestie the cross-reference list here is long and honestly kind of slaying, so buckle up 🧚:

like, go read them. all of them. i'll wait πŸ’–


tiny reminder that this whole page lives under ./drivers/fpga and it's dated October 2026, and the page itself is of_fpga_mgr_get(9) β€” and yeah, that's genuinely it, that's the whole man page. short king behavior πŸ‘‘βœ¨πŸ’œ
