💖 of_machine_read_model(9) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for of_machine_read_model(9). it's giving short-and-sweet, and it lowkey does exactly one thing: gets the model string of this machine. slay. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

• of_machine_read_model — get the model string of this machine. periodt. 💅

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

int of_machine_read_model (const char **model );

yes, that's the exact signature. const char **model is doing its double-pointer thing, and we respect it. 🫶

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• model — address at which the address of the model string will be stored. it's address-ception, but make it kernel-coded. 💖
