🌸 NAME 🌸

rave_sp_eeprom_page_access β€” access a single EEPROM page. one page. that's her whole job. queen behavior πŸ‘‘


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

int rave_sp_eeprom_page_access (struct rave_sp_eeprom *eeprom , enum
rave_sp_eeprom_access_type type , unsigned int offset , u8 *data ,
size_t data_len );

like, look at that signature. the way she takes five args and returns an int… iconic. πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • eeprom β€” the EEPROM device you wanna access. your main character, fr fr.
  • type β€” the access type to perform (read or write). pick a lane bestie, it's literally one or the other 🌈
  • offset β€” offset within the EEPROM to access. where in the memory we're hanging out.
  • data β€” data buffer. the vibes go here πŸ’œ
  • data_len β€” size of the data buffer. gotta tell her how much room she's got.

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so what does she actually do? this function performs a generic access to a single page or a portion thereof. one page, or just a little slice of it β€” either way she's got you 🫢

⚠️ Requested access MUST NOT cross the EEPROM page boundary. no cap, do not do it. stay in your lane, stay in your page. crossing that boundary is not the move 😭

she returns zero in case of success, or a negative error code in case of failure. zero = slay, negative = something went πŸ’€
