STRUCT MAX1363_STATE(9)

💅 struct max1363_state(9) 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ — we're looking at struct max1363_state, which is literally the driver instance specific data. no cap, this is the little state blob that holds everything the max1363 driver needs to remember about you (well, about your chip) 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

struct max1363_state — driver instance specific data 💖

(that's the whole name section, she's short but she ate)

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

       struct max1363_state {
           struct i2c_client               *client;
           u8 setupbyte;
           u8 configbyte;
           const struct max1363_chip_info  *chip_info;
           const struct max1363_mode       *current_mode;
           struct mutex                    lock;
           bool monitor_on;
           unsigned int                    monitor_speed:3;
           u8 mask_high;
           u8 mask_low;
           s16 thresh_high[8];
           s16 thresh_low[8];
           struct regulator                *vref;
           u32 vref_uv;
           int (*send)(const struct i2c_client *client, const char *buf, int
       count);
           int (*recv)(const struct i2c_client *client, char *buf, int count);
           struct {
             u8 buf[MAX1363_MAX_CHANNELS * 2];
             aligned_s64 ts;
           } data;
        };

like, look at her. she's giving struct. she's giving fields. main character energy fr fr 🌈

👑 Members 👑

every single field, bestie, we are NOT skipping anyone 👇

• client — the i2c_client, obviously 💁‍♀️ that's the i2c side of the relationship
• setupbyte — cache of current device setup byte (yes, we cache it, we're organized)
• configbyte — cache of current device config byte (matching energy ✨)
• chip_info — chip model specific constants, available modes, etc. — basically the chip's whole personality
• current_mode — the scan mode of this chip 🔍
• lock — the lock to ensure state is consistent. she's the bouncer at the club, nobody gets in without her 💅
• monitor_on — whether monitor mode is enabled 👀 (true/false, iconic behaviour)
• monitor_speed — parameter corresponding to device monitor speed setting 🏎️
• mask_high — bitmask for enabled high thresholds
• mask_low — bitmask for enabled low thresholds
• thresh_high — high threshold values 📈
• thresh_low — low threshold values 📉
• vref — Reference voltage regulator ⚡
• vref_uv — Actual (external or internal) reference voltage — actual, not fake, no cap
• send — function used to send data to the chip 📤
• recv — function used to receive data from the chip 📥
• data — buffer to store channel data and timestamp 🎀 (that's the u8 buf[MAX1363_MAX_CHANNELS * 2]; plus aligned_s64 ts; combo, she's a nested struct and she's thriving)

not me listing every field with love and care 😭 that's literally the whole point though. the vibes change, the facts do not. periodt 💜
