πŸ’… wdtpci_temp_open(9) πŸ’…

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual β€” yes, that Kernel API Manual, the section 9 one, the "we talk about kernel internals here" one 🧚. Buckle up bestie, it's short but it's iconic.


✨ NAME ✨

wdtpci_temp_open β€”

(and yes, the dash is just… there. no description. the manpage said nothing. it's giving mystery, it's giving "figure it out yourself queen" πŸ’€ that's literally all it says.)


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int wdtpci_temp_open (struct inode *inode , struct file *file );

so she takes two pointers and hands you back an int. that's the whole vibe fr fr πŸ”₯


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • inode β€” the inode of the device. yeah. that inode. the device one πŸ’–
  • file β€” the file handle to the device. the handle. for the file. to the device. we love a straightforward girlie 🫢

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

The temperature device has been opened.

that's it. that's the description. one (1) sentence. she said what she said and she left πŸ‘‘βœ¨ honestly? respect. no notes.


⭐ SEE ALSO ⭐
