okay so bestie, you're reading the Kernel API Manual page for snd_soc_card_jack_new_pins(9) and we're about to make jack-with-pins make sense. no cap, this is the origin story. 💖

🌸 NAME 🌸

snd_soc_card_jack_new_pins — create a new jack with pins. that's the whole vibe. 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int snd_soc_card_jack_new_pins (struct snd_soc_card *card , const char
*id , int type , struct snd_soc_jack *jack , struct snd_soc_jack_pin
*pins , unsigned int num_pins );

💅 ARGUMENTS 💅

• card — ASoC card. your main character energy, bestie. 👑
• id — an identifying string for this jack. give it a cute name, it's literally its whole identity. 🎀
• type — a bitmask of enum snd_jack_type values that can be detected by this jack. think of it as the jack's detection radar — which plugs it can spot. 🔥
• jack — structure to use for the jack. home base, the place where the jack lives. 🏠
• pins — Array of jack pins to be added to the jack or NULL. if you're not about that pin life, see the note below. 🙈
• num_pins — Number of elements in the pins array. counting is mandatory, no vibes-based math. 💀

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

this function creates a new jack object with pins — it's giving "jack but make it extra". ✨

if you're not adding pins, bestie, use snd_soc_card_jack_new instead. don't make it weird. 🙈

return vibe check: 0 means success, you ate and left no crumbs. a negative error code means failure — something went off, no cap. on success, jack will be initialised, so it's ready for its moment. 💅
