STRUCT CLK_GATE_EXCLUSIVE(9)

💅 struct clk_gate_exclusive(9) — aka the Kernel API Manual glow-up ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the <purple>struct clk_gate_exclusive</purple> page, straight out of the Kernel API Manual. this one is an i.MX specific gate clock which is mutually exclusive with other gate clocks — like, it literally will not share the aux with the other gates, it's giving only-child energy 👑🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

struct clk_gate_exclusive — an i.MX specific gate clock which is mutually exclusive with other gate clocks. no cap, that's the whole vibe 💅

---

⭐ SYNOPSIS ⭐

struct clk_gate_exclusive {
    struct clk_gate gate;
    u32 exclusive_mask;
 };

look at her, so compact, so iconic 🎀

🦋 Members 🦋

• gate — the parent class. she's the blueprint she inherited all her gate-ness from, literally the main character she's building on 💖
• exclusive_mask — mask of gate bits which are mutually exclusive to this gate clock. so like, the list of siblings she refuses to be on at the same time as 🙈✨

---

🌈 Description 🌈

okay so here's the tea 🍓: the imx exclusive gate clock is a subclass of basic clk_gate, and on top of all that it brings an additional mask to indicate which other gate bits in the same register are mutually exclusive to this gate clock.

so yeah — same register, but they do not coexist. one goes on, the others stay in their lane. periodt 🔥💀
