📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💖 pinconf_generic_dump_pins 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual entry for pinconf_generic_dump_pins(9) — yes it's a real function, yes the name is a mouthful, no we're not changing it 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

pinconf_generic_dump_pins — literally just prints info about a pin, or a whole group of pins 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void pinconf_generic_dump_pins (struct pinctrl_dev *pctldev , struct
       seq_file *s , const char *gname , unsigned int pin );

no cap, that's the whole signature. four args. that's it. periodt 💅

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

  • pctldev — the pincontrol device. like, the whole device we're talking about here 👑
  • s — the file we're printing all this into 📝
  • gname — a group name that specifies the pins. this is the "i want the whole squad" option 🌈
  • pin — a pin number that specifies a pin. this is the "i want that one" option ⭐

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

So what does it do?? It prints the pinconf configuration for whatever pin(s) you asked for, straight into s. easy. 🍓

You can pick your pins either by pin, using pin, or by group, using gname. the way that you only need to give one of them — the other can totally be NULL/0 and it's fine, no drama, no vibe check failure 🙈
