💖 qcom_smem_get_soc_id(9) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ — yes, the real one, and yes, we're about to make a tiny function feel like main character energy. This one's called qcom_smem_get_soc_id and honestly? She's short, she's sweet, she gets the job done 🎀

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

qcom_smem_get_soc_id — literally just returns the SoC ID 💅 no cap, that's the whole vibe.

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int qcom_smem_get_soc_id (u32 *id );

look at her. one argument. zero drama. iconic 🫶

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• id — this is the lil pointer where the SoC ID gets dropped off. On success, we return the SoC ID right here 💖 so like, don't forget to actually pass a valid one, bestie 😭

---

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

so the way this works is: we look up the SoC ID from the HW/SW build ID, and then we return it. that's it. that's the function. lowkey obsessed with how straightforward she is 🌈

---

⭐ RETURN ⭐

• 0 on success — slay, we ate, everything went great 👑
• negative errno on failure — not slay, something went wrong, check your errno 😭

k bye, go get that SoC ID 💅💖🍓
