ENUM DEVICE_PHYSICAL_LOCATION_HORIZONTAL_POSITION(9)
π NAME π
okay so bestie, welcome to enum device_physical_location_horizontal_position(9) β a whole Kernel API Manual moment, brought to you by the fine people of the ./include/linux directory (iykyk).
This one is literally just vibes with a job: it describes the horizontal position of the device connection point on the panel surface. That's it. That's the whole main character arc. π
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
like, here's the whole cast, no cap:
enum device_physical_location_horizontal_position {
DEVICE_HORI_POS_LEFT ,
DEVICE_HORI_POS_CENTER ,
DEVICE_HORI_POS_RIGHT
};
π Constants π
three icons, three positions, let's go:
DEVICE_HORI_POS_LEFTβ the device connection point is at the left part of the panel. left girlie. π«ΆDEVICE_HORI_POS_CENTERβ the device connection point is at the center part of the panel. main character energy, dead center. πDEVICE_HORI_POS_RIGHTβ the device connection point is at the right part of the panel. right side, still slaying. π

bestie note: this page lives in ./include/linux and it's stamped October 2026 β so yeah, it's giving timeless kernel lore. π¦
and that's the page!! mwah π stay horizontal, stay iconic, and remember: left, center, right β pick your fighter. πβ¨πΈ
