π omap44xx_prm_was_any_context_lost_old β the Kernel API Manual era π
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 β¨
π¦ NAME π¦
omap44xx_prm_was_any_context_lost_old β lowkey asking: did this module lose its hardware context? π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
bool omap44xx_prm_was_any_context_lost_old(u8 part, s16 inst, u16 idx);
that's it. three args, one bool. cute, clean, iconic. π
β¨ ARGUMENTS β¨
partβ the PRM partition ID, likeOMAP4430_PRM_PARTITION. think of it as the neighborhood bestie ποΈinstβ the PRM instance offset, likeOMAP4430_PRM_MPU_INST. the specific house on that block π‘idxβ theCONTEXTregister offset. the exact drawer we're opening to check for clues π
π₯ DESCRIPTION π₯
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 π
otherwise (no bits set, everything chill), it returns 0. slay, context intact, main character module energy π
π SEE ALSO π
first off, the source file itself, obviously:
- Kernel file
./arch/arm/mach-omap2/prm44xx.c

π«Ά 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 π§Ύ
okay bye, go check those context registers, and remember: no bits set = no drama ππ
