velocity_init_info(9)

💖 velocity_init_info(9) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for velocity_init_info(9) — yes, the manual name is folded right in here, we love a header moment. This one is short and iconic: it inits private data, periodt. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

velocity_init_info — init private data 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void velocity_init_info (struct velocity_info *vptr , const struct
velocity_info_tbl *info );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• vptr — Velocity info. This is the struct velocity_info * bestie, aka the info we're working with.
• info — Board type. This is the const struct velocity_info_tbl * situation, and it tells us the board type.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so the actual job: set up the initial velocity_info struct for the device that has been discovered. That's literally the whole thing — initial setup for the velocity_info struct of the device that has been discovered. It's giving "first step, main character energy," and honestly? Obsessed. 💅
