π omap44xx_prm_reconfigure_io_chain β Kernel API Manual, bestie edition β¨
okay so this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual and it's all about omap44xx_prm_reconfigure_io_chain, which is genuinely one of those names that's giving "I was generated by a script" but no, it's iconic, we respect it π«Ά
π NAME π
omap44xx_prm_reconfigure_io_chain β clears the latches and reconfigures the I/O chain. that's it, that's the whole vibe π
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
void omap44xx_prm_reconfigure_io_chain (void );
πΈ ARGUMENTS πΈ
voidβ literally no arguments. zero. nada. it takes nothing, it needs nothing, it's that self-sufficient main character π
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
so what does it do? bestie, it's actually pretty simple:
- it clears any previously-latched I/O wakeup events β like wiping the slate clean β¨
- and it makes sure the I/O wakeup gates are aligned with the current mux settings π
the way it pulls this off: it asserts WUCLKIN, waits for WUCLKOUT to be asserted, then deasserts WUCLKIN and waits for WUCLKOUT to be deasserted. a whole little handshake moment, honestly kind of a serve π€
no return value. it's void, remember? it gives you nothing back because it already gave you everything π
XXX β and here's the part where the kernel devs themselves are like "are the final two steps necessary?" π yes, the source doc literally has that question in it, no cap. we're all just out here living with the mystery π
π§ SEE ALSO π§
the kernel file lives at ./arch/arm/mach-omap2/prm44xx.c β go say hi π«Ά

and that's the page!! this one ships out of ./arch/arm/mach-omap2, dated October 2026, and it's a whole <rainbow>Kernel API Manual</rainbow> moment π go forth and reconfigure those I/O chains, bestie πβ¨
