ps2_begin_command(9)

💅 ps2_begin_command 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — this one's ps2_begin_command(9) and it's honestly such a small icon, we love her for it 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

ps2_begin_command — marks the beginning of execution of a complex command 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void ps2_begin_command (struct ps2dev *ps2dev );

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

• ps2dev — the PS/2 device that's out here executing the command 👑 literally the main character here

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so what she does is serialize a complex/compound command — like, one command at a time bestie, no cutting the line 💅

and the way that once the command is finished you should call ps2_end_command... yeah. that's the whole bit. begin it, do the thing, end it. periodt ✨

no cap, don't forget the ps2_end_command part — it's giving "open the door, walk through, close the door" and skipping step three is not the vibe 🙈
