regmap_get_reg_stride(9)

💅 regmap_get_reg_stride(9) — the kernel API manual, bestie edition

okay so bestie, welcome to regmap_get_reg_stride from the Kernel API Manual ✨ this one's a tiny little function but it's lowkey carrying the whole generic-infrastructure friend group, and i'm obsessed with how unserious it is. let's get into it 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

regmap_get_reg_stride — report the register address stride 💫

like, it just tells you the stride. that's the whole job. she's an icon, she's a legend, and she's literally one int. periodt.

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int regmap_get_reg_stride (struct regmap *map );

yup, that's it. one function, one argument, one int coming back at you. no cap, it's giving "i have one job and i ate" 🫶

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• map — the register map you're operating on, bestie. that's the one. you hand her the map, she gives you the stride. simple as that 💖

---

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

so here's the vibe: regmap_get_reg_stride reports the register address stride 🎀

and the key iykyk detail? it's mainly intended for use by generic infrastructure built on top of regmap — so it's not really the function you call in your random driver on a whim, it's the function the framework-y besties call when they're building stuff on top of regmap. she's infrastructure support, she's the backstage crew, she's main character energy in a supporting role 👑

🧚 cute little sign-off 🧚

and that's the whole page!! 💜 this legend lives over in ./drivers/base/regmap, the version stamp says October 2026, and the source is the good old Kernel API Manual — so next time someone asks you for the register address stride, you know exactly who to call. slay, bye 💅✨🍓
