STRUCT ZD1301_DEMOD_PLATFORM_DATA(9)
β¨ struct zd1301_demod_platform_data β¨
okay bestie, so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual (yes, that manual, the β¨iconicβ¨ one) and we're about to get into some platform data for the zd1301_demod driver. it's giving "small struct, big responsibilities" and honestly? i'm obsessed. let's go π
πΈ NAME πΈ
struct zd1301_demod_platform_data β the platform data for the zd1301_demod driver, fr fr π«Ά
π SYNOPSIS π
here's the whole vibe, character for character, do not touch:
struct zd1301_demod_platform_data {
void *reg_priv;
int (*reg_read)(void *, u16, u8 *);
int (*reg_write)(void *, u16, u8);
};
like, that's it. that's the whole struct. three little members carrying the entire register-access situation on their backs. main character energy, no cap π
π Members π
reg_privβ this is the first argument that gets handed to yourreg_readandreg_writecallbacks. think of it as the lil' backpack of context that travels with every call. πreg_readβ the register read callback. you supply it, the driver calls it, register gets read. slay. π₯reg_writeβ the register write callback. same deal but it writes. iconic behavior. β¨
ngl bestie, these three are a package deal β the two callbacks both take that reg_priv pointer as their first arg, so keep that in mind when you're wiring them up π

aaaand that's the whole thing! π this little beauty lives over in the kernel source at ./drivers/media/dvb-frontends, and this version of the page is dated October 2026. go forth and register-read/write responsibly, bestie ππ§π
