🌈 tveeprom_read(9) — Kernel API Manual energy 🌈

okay bestie, welcome to the tveeprom_read(9) page in the Kernel API Manual. it’s giving “tiny function, very specific Hauppauge eeprom business,” and we’re gonna read it together, no cap 💅

---

✨ NAME ✨

tveeprom_read — reads the contents of the eeprom found at the Hauppauge devices. that’s the whole name vibe 🦋

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

the signature is literally:

int tveeprom_read (struct i2c_client *c , unsigned char *eedata , int
len );

return type? int. iconic of it, honestly 😌

---

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• c — the I2C client struct. main character of the bus-side situation, iykyk.
• eedata — the array where the eeprom content will be stored. it’s the lil bucket for the data 🪣✨
• len — the size of the eedata array. if the eeprom content is gonna be parsed later by tveeprom_hauppauge_analog, then len should be, at least, 256. do not lowball it, bestie 😭

bestie, fr fr: 256 is the minimum here when tveeprom_hauppauge_analog is gonna parse that eeprom content later. do not skimp 💀
