pwm_omap_dm...set_polarity(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… pwm_omap_dmtimer_set_polarity β€” the Kernel API Manual moment

okay so bestie, welcome to the glow-up of pwm_omap_dmtimer_set_polarity(9), straight out of the Kernel API Manual. this is the function that literally flips the vibe of a PWM dmtimer β€” yes, its polarity. we're changing it. iconic behavior only. ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

pwm_omap_dmtimer_set_polarity β€” changes the polarity of the pwm dm timer. that's it, that's the whole job, and she does it flawlessly 🫢


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void pwm_omap_dmtimer_set_polarity (struct pwm_chip *chip , struct pwm_device *pwm , enum pwm_polarity polarity );

look at her. three params, void return, zero drama (the good kind of zero). main character signature fr fr πŸ‘‘


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • chip β€” pointer to the PWM controller. this is the big-picture baddie, the one in charge of everything 🌈
  • pwm β€” pointer to the PWM channel. the specific lil channel we're giving attention to, because every channel deserves its moment πŸ’–
  • polarity β€” the new pwm polarity to be set. this is the actual glow-up we're applying, an enum pwm_polarity no less πŸ’…
ngl bestie, these are pointers and an enum, so pls pls pls pass real, valid ones β€” the page doesn't hand out extra safety rails, it just tells you what each arg is πŸŽ€
