SDCA_CTL_TYPE_S(9)
π«Ά SDCA_CTL_TYPE_S(9) β like, the static version of SDCA_CTL_TYPE, bestie π
okay so real talk, this little cutie lives in the Kernel API Manual and honestly? she's serving convenience and we love her for it β¨
πΈ NAME πΈ
SDCA_CTL_TYPE_S β the static version of SDCA_CTL_TYPE, and yes she ate π
β SYNOPSIS β
SDCA_CTL_TYPE_S (ent , sel );
literally that's it. two args, no drama π
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
entβ the Entity name, likeIT,MFPU, etc. ngl the cute part is you can just read this string straight off the last characters of theSDCA_ENTITY_TYPE_*macros πselβ the Control Selector name, for exampleMIC_BIAS,MUTE, etc. same vibe: this string is readable from the last characters of theSDCA_CTL_*_*macros π§
π DESCRIPTION π
It's a shorthand, bestie β it lets you specify a Control type statically, and it looks like this:
SDCA_CTL_TYPE_S(IT, MIC_BIAS)
that's the whole flex π₯

ok and one last thing before you go β this page is filed under ./include/sound and it's dated October 2026, so yeah, she's from the future and she's iconic for it ππ
k bye, ily, go write some static control types π«Άππ
