ENUM DVB_VB2_STATES(9)

💅 NAME 💅

This is the manual page for enum dvb_vb2_states(9) from the Kernel API Manual, bestie — and it's literally the states to control the VB2 state machine. State machine governance energy, no cap.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

enum dvb_vb2_states {
    DVB_VB2_STATE_NONE ,
    DVB_VB2_STATE_INIT ,
    DVB_VB2_STATE_REQBUFS ,
    DVB_VB2_STATE_STREAMON

};

🎀 Constants 🎀

• DVB_VB2_STATE_NONE — the VB2 engine hasn't been initialized yet, or init failed, or VB2 was released. Basically the "no engine / sad engine / released engine" vibe.
• DVB_VB2_STATE_INIT — VB2 engine initialized. Slay.
• DVB_VB2_STATE_REQBUFS — buffers were requested. Periodt.
• DVB_VB2_STATE_STREAMON — VB2 is streaming. Callers should not check it directly, bestie — instead, they should use dvb_vb2_is_streaming.

🌸 Note 🌸

Callers should not touch at the state machine directly. This is handled inside dvb_vb2.c. Don't poke the internals, iykyk.
