✨ reset_controller_register(9) ✨

okay so we're in the Kernel API Manual bestie, and this is the page for reset_controller_register — yes it's a whole vibe, yes it's important, let's get into it 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

reset_controller_register — register a reset controller device 🎀

like, you made a reset controller?? and now you want the kernel to actually know about it?? this is the function, periodt.

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int reset_controller_register (struct reset_controller_dev *rcdev );

it returns an int (iykyk — check it, don't sleep on it) and it takes exactly one thing, bestie:

---

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• rcdev — a pointer to the initialized reset controller device 🌟. key word here is initialized — like, do the setup first, then come talk to this function. it's giving "read the room", fr fr.
