soc_attr_read_machine(9)

✨ NAME ✨

soc_attr_read_machine — bestie, this is the little function that goes and grabs the machine model and tucks it safely into the soc_device_attribute structure 💖

Like, it literally reads the machine model and stores it in the soc_device_attribute structure. That's the whole vibe. Periodt.

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int soc_attr_read_machine (struct soc_device_attribute *soc_dev_attr );

Okay so it returns an int, takes exactly one argument, and yes the spacing in the original is exactly like that — we keep it iconic and untouched 🎀

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• soc_dev_attr — the SoC attribute structure where the model is gonna live. It's giving "designated storage spot" energy, and honestly? She's the main character of this whole function. 👑

---

⭐ RETURN ⭐

• 0 on success — slay, it worked, we ate 💅
• negative error number on failure — not me crying in errno 😭

fr fr, anything negative means something went sideways. Keep an eye on it, bestie.
