πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… ohci_hcd_sa1111_probe(9) β€” like, the Kernel API Manual, bestie ✨

Okay so picture this: it's a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual, and the star of the show is ohci_hcd_sa1111_probe. Buckle up, we're getting a USB host controller born πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

ohci_hcd_sa1111_probe β€” the function that initializes SA-1111-based HCDs. That's it, that's the whole vibe check πŸ¦‹


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int ohci_hcd_sa1111_probe (struct sa1111_dev *dev );

πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • dev β€” okay so real talk, this one is literally listed as -- undescribed -- in the source. Not me making that up, that's just what it says 😭 The parameter exists, the documentation ghosted us. Iconic behavior, honestly.

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

So here's what this cutie actually does: it allocates the basic resources for this USB host controller β€” yes, all the foundational stuff, the whole getting-set-up moment πŸ’… β€” and then it invokes the start method for the HCD that's associated with it. Two-step glow-up: resources first, then the start call. She's organized, she's efficient, she ate πŸ”₯


πŸ¦‹ SEE ALSO πŸ¦‹

  • The kernel file ./drivers/usb/host/ohci-sa1111.c β€” the actual source, go read it, iykyk πŸ“–
  • ohci_hcd_sa1111_remove(9) β€” the opposite-gender twin, the teardown arc, the one who closes the tab 😌

No cap, the dev argument really is undocumented in the original. If you're looking for spicy details about it, check the source file up there instead. Don't shoot the messenger πŸ™ˆ

And that's a wrap, bestie! This page came to you from ./drivers/usb/host, dated October 2026, and it's filed under ohci_hcd_sa1111_probe(9) β€” go forth and probe responsibly πŸ«ΆπŸ’œβ­
