✨ struct ad5686_spi_data(9) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β€” we're looking at struct ad5686_spi_data, and it's literally the SPI-bus-specific data situation. no cap, it's giving "small struct, very important job" energy πŸ’…


🌸 NAME 🌸

struct ad5686_spi_data β€” SPI bus specific data 🫢


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

struct ad5686_spi_data {
    struct spi_message msg;
    unsigned int size;
    unsigned int capacity;
    struct spi_transfer xfers[];
};

πŸ’– Members πŸ’–

  • msg β€” the SPI message used for transfers. this is the main-character message object, periodt ✨
  • size β€” number of transfers currently in the message. lowkey the "how many do we have right now" counter πŸ‘‘
  • capacity β€” maximum number of transfers that can be added to the message. it's the limit, the ceiling, the "don't push it" number πŸ’€
  • xfers β€” array of SPI transfers, allocated with the provided capacity. flexible array member vibes, iykyk πŸ¦‹

bestie, that's the whole struct. no hidden lore, no extra flags, just msg, size, capacity, and the flexible xfers[] array doing its iconic thing πŸ’œ
