💖 snd_hda_mixer_amp_volume_get 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for snd_hda_mixer_amp_volume_get — yes that whole giant name, we're doing it, we're staying hydrated, we're reading the docs. This one is the get callback for a standard AMP mixer volume, and it's lowkey iconic in a "quietly holds the audio together" way. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

snd_hda_mixer_amp_volume_get — the Get callback for a standard AMP mixer volume. that's the whole vibe. 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int snd_hda_mixer_amp_volume_get (struct snd_kcontrol *kcontrol , struct
       snd_ctl_elem_value *ucontrol );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • kcontrol — the ctl element. yes, that one. the control. 🫶
  • ucontrol — pointer to get/store the data. it's giving "the place the data lives", and honestly? we love that for it. 💅

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

so here's the tea: the control element is supposed to have its private_value field set up via HDA_COMPOSE_AMP_VAL*() or the related macros. that's the assignment, bestie — private_value gets its glow-up from HDA_COMPOSE_AMP_VAL*() or friends, and then this callback can actually do its job. no cap. ✨

fr fr, that "supposed to" is load-bearing — the element needs private_value set up through HDA_COMPOSE_AMP_VAL*() (or the related macros) or this whole situation does not work. 🙈

💜 that's the page!! this little gem lives in ./sound/hda/common and it's dated October 2026, so go ahead and cite it with confidence — snd_hda_mixer_amp_volume_get(9), periodt. mwah, study hard, hydrate, and may your private_value always be composed. 🧚‍♀️✨
