💖 vme_slave_set(9) — straight from the Kernel API Manual 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the group chat for vme_slave_set(9) — the Kernel API Manual page that handles setting a VME slave window’s configuration. It’s giving “specific function, very specific job,” and we are gonna read every single bit. no skipping. 💅

✨ NAME ✨

vme_slave_set — Set VME slave window configuration.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int vme_slave_set (struct vme_resource *resource , int enabled ,
       unsigned long long vme_base , unsigned long long size , dma_addr_t
       buf_base , u32 aspace , u32 cycle );

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• resource — Pointer to VME slave resource. like, the resource pointer you pass in, bestie.
• enabled — State to which the window should be configured.
• vme_base — Base address for the window.
• size — Size of the VME window.
• buf_base — Based address of buffer used to provide VME slave window storage.
• aspace — VME address space for the VME window.
• cycle — VME data transfer cycle type for the VME window.

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

Set configuration for provided VME slave window. That’s the whole assignment, and this function is absolutely doing it. ✨

💀 RETURN 💀

Zero on success, -EINVAL if operation is not supported on this device, if an invalid resource has been provided or invalid attributes are provided. Hardware specific errors may also be returned. so yeah, check that return value, bestie — it’s important. 😭
