πŸ’… snd_soc_dapm_kcontrol_to_dapm β€” aka snd_soc_dap...trol_to_dapm(9) ✨

okay bestie, so this page is from the Kernel API Manual, and the whole vibe is one tiny lil function that hands you the dapm context that's chillin' behind a kcontrol. that's it. that's the whole gig. but like, it's important so pay attention πŸŽ€


🌸 NAME 🌸

snd_soc_dapm_kcontrol_to_dapm β€” returns the dapm context associated to a kcontrol. literally just gives you back the dapm context that goes with the kcontrol you hand it. no cap 🫢


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

struct snd_soc_dapm_context * snd_soc_dapm_kcontrol_to_dapm (struct snd_kcontrol *kcontrol );

like, you give it a struct snd_kcontrol * and you get back a struct snd_soc_dapm_context *. that's the trade. iconique πŸ’«


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • kcontrol β€” the kcontrol. that's it, that's the argument. it's the kcontrol you're asking about, the main character of this whole operation πŸ‘‘

πŸ”₯ NOTE πŸ”₯

bestie. listen. 🚨 this function must only be used on kcontrols that are known to have been registered for a CODEC. otherwise the behaviour is undefined. not "probably fine", not "eh it'll work out", β€” undefined. do not test it. do not f around and find out. πŸ™ˆ

like ngl this is the one rule and it's lowkey non-negotiable πŸ’€
