πŸ’… omap44xx_prm_was_any_context_lost_old β€” the Kernel API Manual era πŸŽ€

okay so bestie, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and honestly? it's giving detective energy. we're checking if a module lost its little hardware memories. let's get into it ✨


πŸ¦‹ NAME πŸ¦‹

omap44xx_prm_was_any_context_lost_old β€” lowkey asking: did this module lose its hardware context? 😭


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

bool omap44xx_prm_was_any_context_lost_old(u8 part, s16 inst, u16 idx);

that's it. three args, one bool. cute, clean, iconic. πŸ’–


✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

  • part β€” the PRM partition ID, like OMAP4430_PRM_PARTITION. think of it as the neighborhood bestie 🏘️
  • inst β€” the PRM instance offset, like OMAP4430_PRM_MPU_INST. the specific house on that block 🏑
  • idx β€” the CONTEXT register offset. the exact drawer we're opening to check for clues πŸ”

πŸ”₯ DESCRIPTION πŸ”₯

so here's the tea: this function returns 1 if any bits were set in the *_CONTEXT_* register identified by (part, inst, idx) β€” which means some context was lost for that module. gone. vanished. not me checking the group chat and seeing zero messages πŸ’€

otherwise (no bits set, everything chill), it returns 0. slay, context intact, main character module energy πŸ‘‘


🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

first off, the source file itself, obviously:

  • Kernel file ./arch/arm/mach-omap2/prm44xx.c

and the whole friend group of related functions β€” go say hi to them, they're all icons fr fr:


🫢 quick vibe check: this whole page lives at ./arch/arm/mach-omap2, dropped October 2026, and it's part of the Kernel API Manual. so if you ever forget where you found it β€” that's the receipt bestie 🧾

okay bye, go check those context registers, and remember: no bits set = no drama πŸ’œπŸŒŸ
