📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 omap4_cminst_module_disable(9) 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — yes this is a section 9 situation, kernel devs only, we're in the kernel internals part of the party 🎉 and we're about to talk about... turning a module off.

✨ NAME ✨

omap4_cminst_module_disable — literally the function that disables the module inside CLKCTRL 💀 like that's it, that's the whole gig

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void omap4_cminst_module_disable (u8 part , u16 inst , u16 clkctrl_offs );

notice the void up front — she returns nothing, she's a doer not a talker, no cap 🫶

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • part — the PRCM partition ID that the CM_CLKCTRL register exists in. lowkey the "which neighborhood are we in" of the whole thing 🗺️
  • inst — the CM instance register offset, aka the *_INST macro. it's giving "which house on the street" 🏠
  • clkctrl_offs — the module clock control register offset, aka the *_CLKCTRL macro. and this one's the actual door you're knocking on 🚪✨

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

No return value.

yep. that's the entire description in the original and honestly? iconic minimalism 💅 she does her job, she does not hand you a status code, she is not here to hold your hand. the return type is void, so don't go checking for a result — there isn't one, bestie, that's the vibe 😭

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

the kernel file herself lives at ./arch/arm/mach-omap2/cminst44xx.c — that's where you'll find her 📍

and here's the whole friend group, fr fr 👑:

(and yes there's an _enable right next to the _disable, they're siblings, we stan a balanced pair 🌈)

heads up bestie: per the page, there's no return value to check, so don't write error handling around this one — there is literally nothing coming back 💀

and that's the whole page!! 🍓 she came from ./arch/arm/mach-omap2, dated October 2026, and she's filed under omap4_cminst_module_disable(9) in the Kernel API Manual. mwah, go disable some modules responsibly 🧚💜
