ulite_suspend(9)

💅 ulite_suspend — a kernel API manual moment (section 9, bestie)

Okay so picture this: you're deep in the kernel, right, and it's time to say night-night to a device. That's the whole vibe of ulite_suspend(9) from the Kernel API Manual. It's short, it's sweet, it's giving "one job and she does it." Let's get into it 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

ulite_suspend — literally just stop the device. That's it. That's the function. 💤

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int ulite_suspend (struct device *dev );

Yeah, that's the whole signature — copy it exactly, don't come for me about the spacing, it's canon. ✨

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• dev — handle to the device structure. That's your girl right there, the struct device you're putting to sleep. 🫶

---

💖 RETURN 💖

Returns 0. Always. No cap, no surprises, no "well actually it depends" — it's always 0. iconic behaviour honestly 👑

Lowkey the most well-behaved return value in the whole kernel and I respect her for it.
