STRUCT PINCTRL_MAP_CONFIGS(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

✨ NAME ✨

okay so bestie, meet struct pinctrl_map_configs(9) β€” the mapping table content for MAP_TYPE_CONFIGS_*, and yes this is from the Kernel API Manual. it’s giving β€œsmall struct, big mapping energy” πŸ’…

πŸ“¦ SYNOPSIS πŸ“¦

here’s the whole shape of it, fr fr:

       struct pinctrl_map_configs {
           const char *group_or_pin;
           unsigned long *configs;
           unsigned int num_configs;
        };

🫢 Members 🫢

  • group_or_pin β€” the name of the pin or group whose configuration parameters are to be configured. this is the β€œwho are we configuring” field, lowkey essential πŸŽ€
  • configs β€” a pointer to an array of config parameters/values to program into hardware. each individual pin controller defines the format and meaning of config parameters. so yeah, the controller is the main character here and it sets the rules ✨
  • num_configs β€” the number of entries in array configs. it’s literally the count, no cap πŸ“

πŸ‘€ SEE ALSO πŸ‘€
