STRUCT EXYNOS_HSI2C_VARIANT(9)
π struct exynos_hsi2c_variant(9) β the kernel API manual, but make it cute
okay so bestie, welcome to the glow-up of struct exynos_hsi2c_variant, straight out of the kernel API manual. this is your main character struct, the one carrying the platform-specific HSI2C driver data. yes, that HSI2C. no cap, this one's a little baby struct but she's important π
β¨ NAME β¨
struct exynos_hsi2c_variant β platform specific HSI2C driver data π
like, literally what it says on the tin: it's the struct that holds the platform-specific config for the HSI2C module. iconic behavior.
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
here's the whole vibe, verbatim, don't touch:
struct exynos_hsi2c_variant {
unsigned int fifo_depth;
enum i2c_type_exynos hw;
};
two members. that's it. she's lowkey minimal and I respect it π«Ά
π¦ Members π¦
fifo_depthβ the fifo depth supported by the HSI2C module. yes bestie, the depth. of the fifo. that's the number, that's the whole job πhwβ the hardware variant of Exynos I2C controller. type isenum i2c_type_exynos, so it's out here telling you which Exynos I2C controller you're dealing with π§
π Description π
so what does this struct actually do? it specifies the platform specific configuration of the HSI2C module. that's the assignment. that's the vibe check. she holds the per-platform deets and the driver reads them and everybody slays β¨
π₯ Note π₯
ngl, this is the important footnote: a structure for driver specific platform data is used for future expansion of its usage. so like β it's built this way on purpose, so it can grow later. foresight! main character planning energy π
bestie pls don't go assuming anything beyond what's written here, the original said "future expansion" and that's the whole tea β
