ENUM DPU_ENC_ENABLE_STATE(9)

💅 enum dpu_enc_enable_state(9) — the Kernel API Manual moment

okay so bestie, welcome to the glow-up doc for enum dpu_enc_enable_state from the Kernel API Manual — this is literally the whole mood board for how a physical encoder is doing rn. it's an enum, it's in the kernel, and it's about to eat. 🍓

---

✨ NAME ✨

enum dpu_enc_enable_state — the current enabled state of the physical encoder. that's it, that's the vibe check. 🦋

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

enum dpu_enc_enable_state {
    DPU_ENC_DISABLING ,
    DPU_ENC_DISABLED ,
    DPU_ENC_ENABLING ,
    DPU_ENC_ENABLED ,
    DPU_ENC_ERR_NEEDS_HW_RESET

};

like, these are the five states and she contains multitudes 💖 copy them exactly btw, no cap, they're case-sensitive and everything.

🎀 Constants 🎀

• DPU_ENC_DISABLING — encoder is transitioning to the disable state. the events bounding that transition are encoder type specific, iykyk 👀
• DPU_ENC_DISABLED — encoder is disabled. she's resting, she's off duty, she's not doing the thing 💅
• DPU_ENC_ENABLING — encoder is transitioning to the enabled state. again, the events bounding the transition are encoder type specific 🌈
• DPU_ENC_ENABLED — encoder is enabled. main character energy, she's ON ⭐
• DPU_ENC_ERR_NEEDS_HW_RESET — encoder is enabled, but it requires a hw_reset to recover from a previous error. lowkey a rough look but she's still enabled, bestie 😭
