okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual πŸ’– β€” yes, that's the manual name, and yes, this page is tiny but it matters, so let's get into it 🫢


🌸 NAME 🌸

usb_hcd_reset_endpoint β€” reset host endpoint state πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

void usb_hcd_reset_endpoint (struct usb_device *udev , struct
usb_host_endpoint *ep );

literally that's the whole signature, no cap. it returns void, so don't go looking for a return value, there isn't one ✨


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • udev β€” the USB device. you know, the actual thing plugged in πŸ”Œ
  • ep β€” the endpoint to reset. this is the one getting the glow-up πŸ’…

πŸ’œ DESCRIPTION πŸ’œ

so what does it do?? it resets any host endpoint state β€” like:

  • the toggle bit
  • the sequence number
  • the current window

that's it, that's the whole job. lowkey iconic for how short it is 🧚
