π omap_rproc_disable_timers β bestie, let's talk timer shutdown
Okay so real talk, we're deep in the Kernel API Manual today and the star of the show is omap_rproc_disable_timers(9). It's a remoteproc function, it's giving cleanup-era energy, and honestly? Iconic.
β¨ NAME β¨
omap_rproc_disable_timers β literally just disables the timers for a remoteproc. No cap, that's the whole vibe. π
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
int omap_rproc_disable_timers (struct rproc *rproc , bool configure );
πΈ ARGUMENTS πΈ
rprocβ the handle of a remote processor. It's the main character you're operating on, iykyk.configureβ a boolean flag that's in charge of releasing the timer handle. So like, it decides how much cleanup actually happens. π
π DESCRIPTION π
So this function is used primarily to disable the timers associated with a remoteproc. That's the job. That's the whole assignment and it ate. π
But here's the tea about the configure flag β it exists so the driver gets to choose between two whole situations:
- it can stop and release a timer (this is the device shutdown scenario), or
- it can just stop a timer (this is the suspend operation scenario).
Two moods, one flag. Lowkey elegant. β¨
β RETURN β
Returns 0 on success, or 0 when there are no timers. Yeah β either way you're getting a 0 bestie, it's a very chill return value. π«Ά
