ENUM FECAP_SCALE_PARAMS(9)
β¨ enum fecap_scale_params(9) β¨
okay so bestie, this one is from the Kernel API Manual β we're deep in kernel-land today π§π
π NAME π
enum fecap_scale_params β the scale types for the quality parameters. literally just telling you how a quality number is being measured, iykyk π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
enum fecap_scale_params {
FE_SCALE_NOT_AVAILABLE ,
FE_SCALE_DECIBEL ,
FE_SCALE_RELATIVE ,
FE_SCALE_COUNTER
};
no cap, that's the whole thing β four constants, each one with main character energy of its own π
π¦ CONSTANTS π¦
FE_SCALE_NOT_AVAILABLEβ this QoS measure just isn't available rn π and that could mean either a temporary or a permanent condition β so don't assume it's coming back, okay?FE_SCALE_DECIBELβ this scale is measured in 0.001 dB steps, and it's typically used on signal measures πΆ (yes, thousandths of a decibel, they're being precise like that π )FE_SCALE_RELATIVEβ this one's a relative percentual measure, ranging from 0 (0%) all the way up to 0xffff (100%) π so it's giving percent vibes but in hex, slayFE_SCALE_COUNTERβ this scale counts the occurrence of an event, like bit error, block error, or lapsed time β±οΈ it's a tally, basically β one, two, three, iconic

bestie reminder: this page lives in ./include/uapi/linux/dvb, and the version/date stamp on it is October 2026 β so yeah, future girlie energy βπ«Ά that's a wrap, go read the frontend header, ily, bye ππ
