pwm_omap_dmtimer_start(9)
π pwm_omap_dmtimer_start β like, the Kernel API Manual page, bestie β¨
Okay so real talk β this is pwm_omap_dmtimer_start, straight out of the Kernel API Manual, and it does exactly one iconic thing: it starts the pwm omap dm timer in pwm mode. That's it. That's the whole vibe. π
β¨ NAME β¨
pwm_omap_dmtimer_start β start the pwm omap dm timer in pwm mode πΈ
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
void pwm_omap_dmtimer_start (struct pwm_omap_dmtimer_chip *omap );
Not me pointing out that it returns void β like, it does the thing and it does not owe you a return value, periodt. π
π ARGUMENTS π
omapβ a pointer to the pwm omap dm timer chip π«Ά That's your main character right there. Hand it over and the timer gets started in pwm mode.
π SEE ALSO π
Like, go read these next, fr fr β they're all in the kernel file ./drivers/pwm/pwm-omap-dmtimer.c:

Lowkey a whole friend group of functions ngl β start here, then go meet the rest of the squad. π
And that's the page, bestie! π This lil gem lives in the kernel source over at ./drivers/pwm, and it's dated October 2026 β yes, the future, we're ahead of schedule, slay. π§ββοΈβ
