πŸ’– regmap_sccb_read(9) πŸ’–

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β€” this one's regmap_sccb_read(9), and it's honestly such a little icon. it reads stuff off an SCCB slave device and it does it with the most extra transmission choreography. come sit with me 🫢


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int regmap_sccb_read (void *context , unsigned int reg , unsigned int *val );

like, that's the whole vibe. three args, one int back. no cap. πŸŽ€


🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • context β€” the device you're gonna be interacting with. your main character, if you will πŸ‘‘
  • reg β€” the register getting read from. yes, that one. 🎯
  • val β€” a pointer, and it's where the read value gets stored. lowkey its whole job πŸ’…

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so here's the tea: this runs a 2-phase write transmission cycle, and then right after that it's followed by a 2-phase read transmission cycle. that's it. that's the whole ritual. ✨

it returns a negative errno if things go sideways, otherwise zero on success. periodt. πŸ’€

ngl bestie, that's genuinely all the page says β€” this function is mysterious and doesn't overshare. respect honestly πŸ™ˆ
