πŸ’… xgpio_set(9) β€” Kernel API Manual, bestie edition

okay so real talk, we're in the xgpio_set(9) page of the Kernel API Manual and it's literally about poking one single GPIO signal with a value. tiny function, big main character energy. let's get into it πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

xgpio_set β€” write the specified signal of the GPIO device. that's it. that's the whole job. iconic honestly πŸ’…


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int xgpio_set (struct gpio_chip *gc , unsigned int gpio , int val );

three args, returns an int, slays 🫢


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • gc β€” pointer to the gpio_chip device structure. like, which chip are we talking to bestie πŸ‘‘
  • gpio β€” the GPIO signal number. which lil signal we're messing with ✨
  • val β€” the value to be written to the specified signal. the actual payload πŸ’Œ

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

so basically, this function writes the specified value into the specified signal of the GPIO device. no cap, that's the whole vibe β€” value in, signal set, done. lowkey the most straightforward glow-up in the whole GPIO file 😭
