STRUCT TS5500_SBC(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

✨ NAME ✨

struct ts5500_sbc β€” the literal board description for the TS-5500, bestie πŸ’…

So this is a kernel API manual page (9), and it's describing one struct. That's it. That's the whole vibe. Let's get into it 🫢


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct ts5500_sbc {
    const char *name;
    int id;
    bool sram;
    bool rs485;
    bool adc;
    bool ereset;
    bool itr;
    u8 jumpers;
 };

okay so it's giving "a little bundle of flags describing a physical board," and honestly? iconic. Every field is a fact about the hardware, no cap πŸ”₯


πŸŽ€ Members πŸŽ€

Here's the lineup, one by one, no skips (we do not skip in this house) πŸ‘‘

  • name β€” the board model name. Literally the name-name. Like, what is this board called. A const char *, so it's a string pointer, and it's the model name πŸ’–
  • id β€” the board's product ID. An int, and it's the product ID. Simple. Slay ✨
  • sram β€” a bool flag for the SRAM option. Is the SRAM option a thing on this board? This field knows πŸ’…
  • rs485 β€” a bool flag for the RS-485 option. Same energy, different option πŸ¦‹
  • adc β€” a bool flag for the Analog/Digital converter option. Yes the flag is named adc and yes the option is the Analog/Digital converter one, keep up bestie 🌸
  • ereset β€” a bool flag for the External Reset option. External reset option check, going down πŸŽ€
  • itr β€” a bool flag for the Industrial Temperature Range option. itr = Industrial Temperature Range, iykyk 🌈
  • jumpers β€” a u8 bitfield for the jumpers' state. Bitfield. Jumpers. State. That's the whole thing, and it's adorable ⭐
ngl the whole struct is just "which options does this board have" plus a name and an ID, and the jumpers crammed into one u8. Lowkey elegant πŸ’€

and that's the page!! πŸ’œ

cute little sign-off moment: this one lives under ./arch/x86/platform/ts5500, and the manual's dated October 2026, with the page itself being struct ts5500_sbc(9) β€” the Kernel API Manual obviously, we been knew πŸ‘‘πŸ’– mwah, go touch some hardware 🧚
