omap_control_init(9)

✨ NAME ✨

omap_control_init — the low level init for the control driver, bestie 💅

So this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's about exactly one function. Short page, iconic energy, let's go 🎀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int omap_control_init (void );

That's it. That's the whole call. No args, just vibes ✨

---

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

• void — no arguments. Literally none. She takes nothing, she needs nothing, she is complete on her own 🫶

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Okay so here's the tea ☕ — omap_control_init does the low level clock infrastructure initialization for the control driver. That's the whole job. No cap.

And the return situation:

• returns 0 on success 🎉 — slay, we love a clean zero
• returns a negative error value on failure 😭 — so if you see a negative number coming back, that's your sign something went sideways. Check it, fr fr. Don't just ignore it and hope. 🙈

Heads up bestie: this page only tells you that it initializes the low level clock infrastructure for the control driver and that it returns 0 or a negative error value. It does not spill any more details, and neither will I — no inventing lore 👑

okay that's the whole page, mwah 💋 — this came out of ./arch/arm/mach-omap2, dated October 2026, and yes the section number on the tin is (9) because it's a kernel API page. periodt. 💜
