omap_rproc_disable_timers(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… 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.


✨ NAME ✨

omap_rproc_disable_timers β€” literally just disables the timers for a remoteproc. No cap, that's the whole vibe. πŸŽ€


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

int omap_rproc_disable_timers (struct rproc *rproc , bool configure );

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • rproc β€” the handle of a remote processor. It's the main character you're operating on, iykyk.
  • configure β€” a boolean flag that's in charge of releasing the timer handle. So like, it decides how much cleanup actually happens. πŸ™ˆ

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

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. πŸ’…

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. ✨


⭐ RETURN ⭐

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. 🫢
