✨ ti_bandgap_talert_init(9) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual 💖 this one lives in the Linux kernel docs and it's all about ti_bandgap_talert_init — no cap, the name is a mouthful, but it's literally "setup and initialize talert handling." 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int ti_bandgap_talert_init (struct ti_bandgap *bgp , struct
       platform_device *pdev );

yes, that's the whole thing 💅 two args, one int coming back at you.

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • bgp — pointer to struct ti_bandgap. that's your bandgap buddy right there 🫶
  • pdev — pointer to device struct platform_device, aka the platform device struct for this device ✨

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

okay so read this part, bestie, it's important: call this function only in case the bandgap features HAS(TALERT). like, only then. that's the vibe check for this one 🙈

in that case, the driver needs to handle the TALERT signals as an IRQs. yep, TALERT is a normal IRQ, and it gets fired any time thresholds (hot or cold) are violated 🔥🧊

in these situation, the driver must reprogram the thresholds, accordingly to specified policy. periodt. 💀

🌈 RETURN 🌈

0 if no error, else return corresponding error. simple as that 💖
