okay so bestie, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual (yes, the kernel has manuals, and yes, they're kind of iconic) β€” it's all about xilinx_timer_tlr_cycles, a lil function that calculates the TLR for a period that you specified in clock cycles. πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

xilinx_timer_tlr_cycles β€” Calculate the TLR for a period specified in clock cycles πŸ•°οΈβœ¨


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

u32 xilinx_timer_tlr_cycles (struct xilinx_timer_priv *priv , u32 tcsr ,
u64 cycles );

like, that's the whole signature, no cap. 🫢


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • priv β€” The timer's private data πŸ’œ (yes, it's private, mind your business)
  • tcsr β€” The value of the TCSR register for this counter ⭐
  • cycles β€” The number of cycles in this period πŸ”₯

πŸ‘‘ DESCRIPTION πŸ‘‘

ok so listen up, because this is the important part:

Callers of this function MUST ensure that cycles is representable as a TLR.

like, that's not a suggestion, that's a MUST with all caps, periodt. πŸ’€ If your cycles value can't be represented as a TLR, that's on you, not on this function. Do your vibe check before you call, bestie. πŸ™ˆ


🌈 RETURN 🌈
