✨ xgpio_get(9) ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the xgpio_get page β€” this is a kernel API manual entry (that's the manual name, for the record, xgpio_get(9) 🫢) and honestly she's short but she delivers.


πŸ’… NAME

xgpio_get β€” reads the specified signal of the GPIO device. that's it, that's the whole job, and she does it flawlessly ✨


🌸 SYNOPSIS

int xgpio_get (struct gpio_chip *gc , unsigned int gpio );

like, it takes two things and gives you back an int. iconic signature tbh πŸ’–


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS

  • gc β€” pointer to the gpio_chip device structure. yes she's a pointer, yes you have to have one, no you can't just vibe your way around it πŸ¦‹
  • gpio β€” the GPIO signal number. which signal are we reading bestie? this number. πŸ”₯

🌈 DESCRIPTION

this function reads the specified signal of the GPIO device. literally that's the description and honestly it's lowkey perfect β€” no notes, no cap 🧚


⭐ RETURN
