💅 snd_soc_com..._init_regmap(9) — the Kernel API Manual glow-up

okay bestie, so this page lives in the Kernel API Manual, and the whole thing is literally about snd_soc_component_init_regmap. yes the title is truncated with dots, no we're not gonna fix it, it's iconic in a chaotic way 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

snd_soc_component_init_regmap — bestie's whole job is setting up a regmap instance for the component, that's it, that's the vibe 💖

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void snd_soc_component_init_regmap (struct snd_soc_component *component
, struct regmap *regmap );

no cap, that's the whole signature 🦋

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

  • component — the component you're out here initializing the regmap instance for, main character energy fr 👑
  • regmap — the actual regmap instance that the component should be using, hand it over 💅

🧚 DESCRIPTION 🧚

okay so listen. this function is the one that lets you do a deferred assignment of the regmap instance that's associated with the component. like you're not committing yet, you're just... setting it up for later. very "i'll text you back" of it 🙈

only use this if the regmap instance isn't ready yet when the component gets registered — that's the whole reason it exists, lowkey.

⚠️ and bestie, do NOT sleep on this one: the function must also be called before the first IO attempt of the component. like, before. not during, not after, before. iykyk 😭

💀 SEE ALSO 💀

🌈 and that's the page!! this lil' baddie came from ./sound/soc and the manual says October 2026 for the date, so yeah, dated content, slay, periodt. if you see the footer it's just the source ./sound/soc and that same date again — consider yourself signed off, mwah 💜🦋
