πŸ’… slim_writeb(9) πŸ’…

okay bestie, welcome to the slim_writeb(9) page from the Kernel API Manual β€” this one is short, sweet, and very "write a byte, slay, go home" energy. ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

slim_writeb β€” write a byte to a SLIMbus value element πŸŽ€


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

int slim_writeb (struct slim_device *sdev , u32 addr , u8 value );

πŸ’– ARGUMENTS πŸ’–

  • sdev β€” the client handle, bestie. your little connection to the device. 🫢
  • addr β€” address of the value element to write to. yes, the exact spot. πŸ’…
  • value β€” the value to write to that value element. the actual byte going in. ⭐

πŸ”₯ RETURN πŸ”₯

  • -EINVAL β€” for invalid parameters. basically: bad input, no vibes, no write. 😭
  • -ETIMEDOUT β€” if transmission of this message timed out, e.g. due to bus lines not being clocked or driven by controller. the message just did not make it, and that's the tea. πŸ’€
