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 π«Ά
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
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. π
πΈ ARGUMENTS πΈ
contextβ the device you're gonna be interacting with. your main character, if you will πregβ the register getting read from. yes, that one. π―valβ a pointer, and it's where the read value gets stored. lowkey its whole job π
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
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. β¨
it returns a negative errno if things go sideways, otherwise zero on success. periodt. π
ngl bestie, that's genuinely all the page says β this function is mysterious and doesn't overshare. respect honestly π
