snd_hda_codec_get_pincfg(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 NAME

snd_hda_codec_get_pincfg — bestie, this is literally how you obtain a pin-default configuration ✨ (it's in the Kernel API Manual, and yes this page is everything)

🎀 SYNOPSIS

unsigned int snd_hda_codec_get_pincfg (struct hda_codec *codec ,
hda_nid_t nid );

🌸 ARGUMENTS

  • codec — the HDA codec 💖 like, the actual codec you're working with
  • nid — the NID you want the pin config of 🎯 that's the one, that's the node id

🦋 DESCRIPTION

okay so here's the vibe: this function gets the current pin config value of the pin NID you pass in. Slay. 🫶

And here's the little detail that matters — if the pincfg value is already cached, or it's been overridden via sysfs or the driver, then you get the cached value back. No cap, it's not re-reading anything fresh, it's giving cache energy. 😌
