STRUCT FRAMER(9)

💅 struct framer(9) 💅

okay so bestie, we're in the Kernel API Manual today and the main character is literally struct framer — the struct that represents the framer device ✨ no cap, that's the whole vibe.

---

🎀 NAME 🎀

struct framer — represents the framer device 🦋

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

struct framer {
    struct device                   dev;
    int id;
    const struct framer_ops         *ops;
    struct mutex                    mutex;
    int init_count;
    int power_count;
    struct regulator                *pwr;
    struct work_struct              notify_status_work;
    struct blocking_notifier_head   notifier_list;
    struct delayed_work             polling_work;
    struct framer_status            prev_status;
 };

like, that's the whole struct, laid out and iconic 💖

🌸 Members 🌸

okay so here's the member-by-member tour, iykyk 👑

• dev — the framer device itself 🫶
• id — the id of the framer device 🔥
• ops — function pointers for performing framer operations, the actual worker bees fr fr
• mutex — a mutex to protect framer_ops 🔒
• init_count — used to protect when the framer is used by multiple consumers 😭 (yes, multiple consumers can share it, she's popular)
• power_count — used to protect when the framer is used by multiple consumers ⚡ same situation, different counter
• pwr — the power regulator associated with the framer 🌈
• notify_status_work — work structure used for status notifications, she's literally the messenger 💌
• notifier_list — notifier list used for notifications 📣
• polling_work — delayed work structure used for the polling task ⏰
• prev_status — previous read status used by the polling task to detect changes 👀 like a glow-up detector but for status
