💅 reset_control_bulk_deassert(9) 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — this is the page for reset_control_bulk_deassert, and it's literally the cleanup queen of the reset world. sit down, grab a strawberry drink 🍓, and let's get into it.

✨ NAME ✨

reset_control_bulk_deassert — deasserts the reset lines in reverse order 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int reset_control_bulk_deassert (int num_rstcs , struct
reset_control_bulk_data *rstcs );

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • num_rstcs — the number of entries in the rstcs array. like, how many besties are we talking about here 👀
  • rstcs — array of struct reset_control_bulk_data with reset controls set. this is the squad, all lined up and ready 💅

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

Deassert the reset lines for all the provided reset controls, in reverse order. yes queen, backwards — that's the whole vibe 🫶

and here's the important part, so listen up: if a deassertion fails, the resets that were already deasserted get asserted again. it rewinds itself. no cap, that's the safety net 😭

See also: reset_control_deassert — your single-reset little sibling, if you don't need the whole bulk situation.
