or1k_early_setup(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

okay bestie, welcome to or1k_early_setup(9), fresh from the Kernel API Manual 💅✨ this one is short and sweet, so let’s get into it.

✨ NAME ✨

or1k_early_setup — that’s the function, periodt. The original name entry is literally just the name and a lil dash, and we respect the mystery 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void or1k_early_setup (void *fdt );

No cap, that’s the whole signature.

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

  • fdt — pointer to the start of the device tree in memory, or NULL 💖

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so this function handles the pointer to the device tree that this kernel is to use for establishing the available platform devices ✨ it’s giving very “early setup main character energy,” and it knows what to do.

and if a null pointer is passed? it falls back on the built-in device tree, no cap 🫶 so you’re covered either way.
