πŸŽ€ struct tps65218(9) πŸŽ€

okay so real talk, we're deep in the Kernel API Manual rn and this page is about struct tps65218 β€” the vibe is "sub-driver chip access routines" and honestly? iconic. it's a little struct that lets a sub-driver go talk to the chip. no cap. πŸ’…


✨ NAME ✨

struct tps65218 β€” the tps65218 sub-driver chip access routines. that's it, that's the whole name, she's lowkey humble about it 🫢


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

here's the whole fit, laid out exactly as declared β€” do not come for her fields, she needs every single one:

struct tps65218 {
    struct device *dev;
    unsigned int id;
    u8 rev;
    struct mutex tps_lock;
    int irq;
    u32 irq_mask;
    struct regmap_irq_chip_data *irq_data;
    struct regulator_desc desc[TPS65218_NUM_REGULATOR];
    struct regmap *regmap;
    u8 *strobes;
};

🌈 Members 🌈

so the member list is the cast above πŸ‘† β€” dev, id, rev, tps_lock, irq, irq_mask, irq_data, desc[TPS65218_NUM_REGULATOR], regmap, and strobes. every single one is a main character, and desc shows up with TPS65218_NUM_REGULATOR of them like she's bringing her whole friend group to the function πŸŽ€

ngl the header file is where the actual per-member lore lives (see SEE ALSO down below), this page is just doing the introductions ✨


πŸ’– Description πŸ’–

okay so the whole point, fr fr: device data may be used to access the TPS65218 chip. that's the assignment. you got the device data, you got chip access, go off πŸ‘‘

  • Kernel file ./include/linux/mfd/tps65218.h β€” go read it, she's got the answers, iykyk πŸ¦‹

and that's the page bestie!! πŸ’œ this little gem lives in ./include/linux/mfd, and the version fairy stamped it October 2026 β€” so go forth, access that chip, and slay πŸ’…βœ¨πŸ“
