STRUCT XOADC_VARIANT(9)

💅 struct xoadc_variant(9)

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual and bestie, it's literally just about one little struct — but she's kind of a big deal 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

struct xoadc_variant — encodes the XOADC variant characteristics. that's it, that's the whole job. she's a little info-card for a PMIC variant and honestly? iconic. 👑

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct xoadc_variant {
    const char name[16];
    const struct xoadc_channel *channels;
    bool broken_ratiometric;
    bool prescaling;
    bool second_level_mux;
 };

🦋 Members 🦋

• name — the name of this PMIC variant. just her name, in a const char array of 16, living her best life 💖
• channels — the hardware channels plus their respective settings and defaults. all of them. this is the whole lineup, the whole squad 🫶
• broken_ratiometric — a bool that's set if the PMIC has broken ratiometric scaling. and ngl, this is a known problem on PM8058 😭 so like… not a vibe, but at least you can check for it.
• prescaling — a bool meaning this variant uses AMUX bits 2 & 3 for prescaling (PM8058). yes, those exact bits. no cap. ✨
• second_level_mux — a bool meaning this variant uses AMUX bits 2 & 3 for a second level mux. bestie it's the same bits, they're just doing double duty depending on the variant — lowkey chaotic, highkey fine 💅

fr fr, prescaling and second_level_mux both describe AMUX bits 2 & 3 — which one applies depends on the variant, so don't go assuming, okay? 🙈
