✨ struct reset_control_array(9) ✨

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and honestly? it's a short one but it's lowkey a baddie. bestie, we're talking about struct reset_control_array — literally just an array of reset controls, and the way it's structured is kind of iconic. no cap, let's get into it 💅

🎀 NAME 🎀

struct reset_control_array — an array of reset controls ✨

like, that's it. that's the whole vibe. it's a struct that holds many reset controls at once. group chat energy but for hardware resets 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct reset_control_array {
    struct reset_control base;
    unsigned int num_rstcs;
    struct reset_control *rstc[];
};

look at her. three members, zero drama, main character energy. keep reading for the member breakdown 💖

🦋 Members 🦋

  • base — the reset control for compatibility with reset control API functions. yes bb, she keeps a struct reset_control around so all the regular reset-control API calls still work on her. it's giving "I contain multitudes" 💀
  • num_rstcs — number of reset controls. an unsigned int that literally just tells you how many resets are in the array. no notes, she's counting, she's serving 🌈
  • rstc — array of reset controls. that's a flexible array member (struct reset_control *rstc[]), so the actual resets live right there at the end of the struct, all cozy together 🧚
fr fr, every single member is listed above — nothing skipped, nothing merged. we respect the whole struct here 👑

that's the whole page bestie, short and sweet and every bit of it intact 💜 go forth and reset things responsibly ✨

sign-off szn 🎀 this lil gem lives in ./drivers/reset, and the manual's dated October 2026 — so like, future energy, slay, see you then 💖🦋🌸
