STRUCT RZA1_PINCTRL(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ‘‘ struct rza1_pinctrl(9) β€” the RZ pincontroller device, explained πŸ’…

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and bestie, it's literally all about struct rza1_pinctrl β€” the RZ pincontroller device. yes, that one. let's get into it ✨


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

here's the whole struct, copied exactly, no cap:

struct rza1_pinctrl {
    struct device *dev;
    struct mutex mutex;
    void __iomem *base;
    unsigned int nport;
    struct rza1_port *ports;
    struct pinctrl_pin_desc *pins;
    struct pinctrl_desc desc;
    struct pinctrl_dev *pctl;
    const void *data;
 };

like, look at her. main character struct energy fr fr 🫢


✨ Members ✨ (aka the whole cast)

  • dev β€” the parent device structure. the mom of the group chat πŸ’–
  • mutex β€” protects the [pinctrl|pinmux]_generic functions. she's the bouncer at the door, keep her happy 😀
  • base β€” logical address base. the literal home address of the whole operation 🏠
  • nport β€” number of pin controller ports. counting era πŸ”’
  • ports β€” pin controller banks. the whole crew πŸ«‚
  • pins β€” pin array for the pinctrl core. iconic lineup ⭐
  • desc β€” pincontroller desc for the pinctrl core. the vibe check sheet πŸ“‹
  • pctl β€” pinctrl device. the actual device herself πŸ‘‘
  • data β€” device specific data. her personal lore, iykyk πŸ”₯

first up, the kernel file itself: ./drivers/pinctrl/renesas/pinctrl-rza1.c β€” go read her, she's the source of truth πŸ’œ

and then the whole friend group, all of them linked from here:

no gatekeeping here, she tags everyone πŸ’…


ngl this one's short and sweet β€” but every single field matters, so don't skip the mutex. she's protecting the [pinctrl|pinmux]_generic functions and that's not a joke 🫑

and that's the whole page, bestie! this lil' cutie comes from ./drivers/pinctrl/renesas, dated October 2026 β€” so like, from the future, slay πŸ’–βœ¨πŸŽ€
