q6afe_slim_port_prepare(9)

💅 NAME 💅

q6afe_slim_port_prepare — bestie, this is the one that prepares a slim afe port. Like getting your fit ready before you walk out the door, except the fit is a SLIM port config and the door is the audio DSP. Slay.

Oh and hey, welcome to the Kernel API Manual section 9 — yes, the ~kernel~ manual, we're literally in the kernel's group chat now 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void q6afe_slim_port_prepare (struct q6afe_port *port , struct
q6afe_slim_cfg *cfg );

Not me returning void — this function gives nothing back and honestly? iconic. It does the work, it doesn't do the talking 💁‍♀️

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• port — the instance of afe port. This is your main character, the actual port object you're prepping.
• cfg — the SLIM configuration for the afe port. This is the outfit, the vibe, the whole plan. You hand it over and the port gets ready.

Like, the whole prepare-port squad is here — TDM, USB, HDMI, I2S, CDC DMA — all the siblings. Family reunion fr fr 👑

💀 Quick reminder bestie: q6afe_port_prepare-style calls are about getting ready, not starting. Don't be out here thinking this starts the port — that's what q6afe_port_start(9) is for, and she's right there in the list. Read before you ship 🙈
