💅 omap_prm_reset_system(9) — like, the Kernel API Manual page, bestie 🎀

okay so we're in the Kernel API Manual today and the star of the show is omap_prm_reset_system(9). she's a void function, she takes nothing, and she will absolutely end your whole device's career (affectionately). let's get into it ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

omap_prm_reset_system — trigger global SW reset 👑

like the name literally says it: trigger global SW reset. no cap.

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void omap_prm_reset_system (void );

that's it. that's the whole signature. void in, void out, void of it all, icon behavior fr 💅

---

🍓 ARGUMENTS 🍓

• void — no arguments. none. zero. the girl takes nothing from anybody 🙈

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

Triggers SoC specific global warm reset to reboot the device.

like, it literally reboots the device. a global warm reset, but SoC specific — the chip decides the flavor, and the whole thing goes down and comes back up. main character energy on a silicon level, ngl 💀✨

⚠️ heads up bestie: this is a global reset, so it's not a "just this one little peripheral" situation. it's giving whole-SoC. void in, chaos out 🫶
