💅 s1d13xxxfb_setcolreg 💅

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual — it's literally the s1d13xxxfb_setcolreg man page and it's shorter than my attention span, but it's iconic so let's go 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

s1d13xxxfb_setcolreg — sets a color register. that's it, that's the vibe. it's giving "one job, does it well" 👑

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int s1d13xxxfb_setcolreg (u_int regno , u_int red , u_int green , u_int
blue , u_int transp , struct fb_info *info );

six whole arguments bestie, count 'em, we're committed 😭✨

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • regno — which register in the CLUT we are programming. yeah, that CLUT. the Color Lookup Table. it's the moment, it's the main character, we're picking which slot gets the glow-up 💅
  • red — the red value, and it can be up to 16 bits wide. SIXTEEN. bits. highkey generous 🍓
  • green — the green value, which can be up to 16 bits wide. slay, green, you get the same range as red, no favourites here 🌈
  • blue — the blue value, which can be up to 16 bits wide. note the lil period at the end of the original — yeah I kept it, we're thorough 🌊
  • transp — if supported, the alpha value, which can be up to 16 bits wide. if supported — key words, bestie, don't come for me if your hardware's not about that alpha life 🙈
  • info — frame buffer info structure. the whole context, the group chat, the container for everything 🫶

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

Returns a negative errno on error, or zero on success. that's the whole description and honestly? efficient. no notes. periodt 💯

fr fr, that's all it says — negative errno = bad vibes, 0 = slay. don't overthink it ✨
