okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ this little page is all about zynqmp_get_error_info, and honestly it's giving "quiet but crucial" energy. it lives in the kernel, it peeks at your ECC situation, and it does not do small talk. let's get into it πŸŽ€


🌸 NAME 🌸

zynqmp_get_error_info β€” grab the current ECC error info, like, right now. no cap, that's the whole job πŸ’…


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int zynqmp_get_error_info (struct synps_edac_priv *priv );

yep, one function, one argument, one int coming back at ya 🫢


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • priv β€” the DDR memory controller's own private instance data. it's the controller's little diary, and this function is asking to read it πŸ““πŸ’–

πŸ‘‘ RETURN πŸ‘‘

so here's the vibe check on what comes back:

  • returns one if there is no error β€” slay, we're clean ✨
  • otherwise it returns zero β€” meaning yeah, there's an error situation 😭
heads up bestie: it's inverted from what your gut expects. 1 = good vibes, 0 = not good vibes. read it twice, i'm serious πŸ™ˆ
