STRUCT SLIM_FRAMER(9)

💅 struct slim_framer(9) — a Kernel API Manual moment

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual, page struct slim_framer(9). grab a boba, we're talking SLIMbus framers 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

struct slim_framer — it's literally the struct that represents a SLIMbus framer. Every controller may have multiple framers, no cap. There is exactly 1 active framer device that's responsible for clocking the bus, and the Manager is the one responsible for framer hand-over 👑

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct slim_framer {
    struct device           dev;
    struct slim_eaddr       e_addr;
    int rootfreq;
    int superfreq;
 };

🎀 Members 🎀

• dev — the driver model representation of the device. that's it, that's the vibe 🫶
• e_addr — the enumeration address of the framer 💌
• rootfreq — the Root Frequency at which the framer can run. this is the maximum frequency ('clock gear 10') at which the bus can operate 🔥
• superfreq — Superframes per root frequency. every single frame is 6144 bits ⭐
