STRUCT INTEL_PADGROUP(9)

💖 NAME 💖

okay so welcome to the Kernel API Manual, bestie — this is the page for struct intel_padgroup(9), and it's literally all about hardware pad group information. no cap, that's the whole vibe. it's giving “small struct, important job” energy 💅.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

       struct intel_padgroup {
           unsigned int reg_num;
           unsigned int base;
           unsigned int size;
           int gpio_base;
           unsigned int padown_num;
        };

🎀 Members 🎀

• unsigned int reg_num; — the GPI_IS register number, periodt.
• unsigned int base; — the starting pin of this group. iconic.
• unsigned int size; — size of this group, and the maximum is INTEL_PINCTRL_MAX_GPP_SIZE (yes, literally that exact constant, bestie).
• int gpio_base; — the starting GPIO base of this group. slay.
• unsigned int padown_num; — the PAD_OWN register number (assigned by the core driver). iykyk.

🌸 Description 🌸

so here's the tea: the way that this struct matters is if the pad groups in a community are not the same size, you use this structure to specify them. that's it, that's the job — lowkey highkey main character energy for mismatched groups 🦋.
