STRUCT MUX_CHIP(9)

💅 struct mux_chip(9) — like, the Kernel API Manual page for struct mux_chip

okay so bestie, welcome to the glow-up of struct mux_chip 💖 this is a kernel API manual page (yes, the (9) is the section, she's fancy like that), and honestly? she's giving "container of mux controllers" main character energy and we're obsessed.

---

✨ NAME ✨

struct mux_chip — literally represents a chip holding mux controllers 🎀 that's it, that's the whole vibe.

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

bestie. look at her. the whole struct, no cap:

struct mux_chip {
    unsigned int controllers;
    struct device dev;
    int id;
    const struct mux_control_ops *ops;
    struct mux_control mux[];
 };

---

🦋 Members 🦋

okay so these are the members, and yes we're going through every single one because that's the whole point:

• controllers — the number of mux controllers this chip handles. like, how many besties she's managing. the headcount. ✨
• dev — the device structure. her whole struct device situation. iconic of her honestly.
• id — used to identify the device internally. lowkey her little name tag so the kernel knows which one she is 🏷️
• ops — the mux controller operations, a const struct mux_control_ops *. this is the part where she tells you what she can actually do 💅
• mux — an array of mux controllers that are handled. that's struct mux_control mux[], a flexible array, so she's got room for her whole friend group 🫶
