πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… drm_colorop_index(9) β€” the kernel API manual, but make it make sense

okay so bestie, real talk: this is drm_colorop_index from the kernel API manual, and it's actually so simple you're gonna be obsessed. It's a little lookup function living in the DRM colorop world, and it does exactly one thing. One job. Iconic behaviour, honestly.


πŸŽ€ NAME πŸŽ€

drm_colorop_index β€” find the index of a registered colorop. that's it. that's the whole vibe. no cap.


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

unsigned int drm_colorop_index (const struct drm_colorop *colorop );

so it takes one thing and gives you back an unsigned int. clean. minimal. main character energy.


🫢 ARGUMENTS 🫢

  • colorop β€” the colorop you want the index for, bestie. that's the one you're looking up. it's a const struct drm_colorop *, so like, don't go mutating it, we're just looking respectfully πŸ‘€

πŸ”₯ DESCRIPTION πŸ”₯

okay so picture this: you hand it a registered colorop, right? and it just… tells you where that colorop sits in a DRM device's list of colorops. that's the index. that's it. it's giving "find my friend in the group photo" but for kernel objects πŸ’…

so yeah β€” given a registered colorop, it returns the index of that colorop within a DRM device's list of colorops. lowkey the most useful little guy. go off, king 🌈

ngl it's literally just a position lookup, but the way it does it? effortless. periodt.

okay that's the page!! and before I forget β€” this whole thing lives under ./include/drm, and the manual is dated October 2026, so like… future-coded of it honestly ⭐ mwah, go read your kernel headers bestie, you're gonna slay πŸ’–πŸŽ€πŸ¦‹
