πŸ’… route_register_is_valid(9) πŸ’…

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β€” this one's a lil function called route_register_is_valid, and it's giving "short and mysterious" energy ngl. Let's get into it 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

route_register_is_valid β€” determines whether the register value for the specified route destination on the specified device is valid.

that's it. that's the whole vibe check. no notes. πŸ’–


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

bool route_register_is_valid (const u8 src_sel_reg_value , const int
dest , const struct ni_route_tables *tables );

she returns a bool, she takes three args, she's on her main character grind πŸ‘‘


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

okay so here's the thing, and I need you to sit down for this one 😭 β€” the original docs did NOT come through with the descriptions. like at all. every single one of these literally just says -- undescribed --. so:

  • src_sel_reg_value β€” -- undescribed -- πŸ’€
  • dest β€” -- undescribed -- πŸ’€
  • tables β€” -- undescribed -- πŸ’€

that's it. that's all the info we got, fr fr. no cap, I'm not gonna make something up and lie to you, bestie β€” that would be so not slay of me. what I can tell you is exactly what's in the synopsis: it's a const u8, a const int, and a const struct ni_route_tables *. that's a real thing we know πŸ’…

heads up bestie: three args and zero descriptions means the source file is genuinely the main character here. if you need the actual semantics, <pink>ni_routes.h</pink> is right there. iykyk ✨

and that's the whole page!! short, sweet, slightly under-documented, still iconic 🌈 this lil gem comes to you straight from ./drivers/comedi/drivers, dated October 2026 β€” mwah, go read a struct definition, ily bye πŸ“πŸ’–
