STRUCT EC_RESPONSE_FLASH_PROTECT(9)

💖 NAME 💖

hey bestie!! welcome to the struct ec_re...lash_protect(9) page from the Kernel API Manual — she’s the response struct for the flash protect command, and she’s literally iconic ✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

okay so the struct itself is this exact vibe, no cap:

       struct ec_response_flash_protect {
           uint32_t flags;
           uint32_t valid_flags;
           uint32_t writable_flags;
        };

🫶 Members 🫶

• flags — Current value of flash protect flags. like, the actual flag state rn 👑
• valid_flags — Flags which are valid on this platform. This allows the caller to distinguish between flags which aren't set vs. flags which can't be set on this platform. that distinction is important, iykyk 💅
• writable_flags — Flags which can be changed given the current protection state. so not every flag is editable in every state, periodt 🔥
