STRUCT BRCMSTB_PDATA(9)

💅 NAME 💅

okay so, welcome to struct brcmstb_pdata(9) — it's the specific data for a pinctrl chip implementation 🎀 like, it's the little info packet that tells one particular pinctrl chip how to be itself. bestie, it's giving "custom fit, no cap" ✨

this page lives in the Kernel API Manual btw, iykyk 💜

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

here's the whole struct, literally character for character, don't touch it, she's perfect:

struct brcmstb_pdata {
    const struct pinctrl_desc *pctl_desc;
    const struct pinctrl_gpio_range *gpio_range;
    const struct pin_regs *pin_regs;
    const struct brcmstb_pin_funcs *pin_funcs;
    const unsigned int func_count;
    const unsigned int func_gpio;
    const char * const *func_names;
 };

lowkey every field is const, she said "read-only era" 💅🔥

🎀 MEMBERS 🎀

okay let's meet the cast, main character energy from every single one 🫶

• pctl_desc — the pin controller descriptor for this implementation. like the ID card for this exact chip, bestie 🪪
• gpio_range — the range of GPIOs served by this controller. this is her turf, her zone, her assigned little kingdom 👑
• pin_regs — an array of register descriptors, one for each pin. yes, each pin. she's thorough 🦋
• pin_funcs — an array of all possible assignable functions for each pin. the whole menu of what every pin could be when it grows up 🌈
• func_count — the total number of functions. just a count. tallying it up fr fr 🔢
• func_gpio — which function number is the GPIO one (usually 0). like, the default vibe of a function slot ✨
• func_names — an array listing all the function names. every name, spelled out, no mystery, we love transparency 💖

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

go look at these if you wanna keep the lore going 👀

• Kernel file ./drivers/pinctrl/bcm/pinctrl-brcmstb.h struct
• brcmstb_pin_funcs(9)

ngl if you're here you probably also need brcmstb_pin_funcs(9) — they're literally besties, you can't have one without the other 😭💀
