okay so this is the Kernel API Manual page for phm_start_th...l_controller(9), and the star of the show is phm_start_thermal_controller — the function that initializes the thermal controller subsystem. periodt. ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS

int phm_start_thermal_controller (struct pp_hwmgr *hwmgr );

🎀 ARGUMENTS

• hwmgr — the address of the powerplay hardware manager. 🫶 Exception PP_Result_Failed if any of the parameters is NULL, otherwise the return value from the dispatcher.

bestie, clock the caveat: if any parameter is NULL, it’s giving PP_Result_Failed energy. otherwise? you get the return value from the dispatcher. no cap. 💅
