ENUM ICVS_STATE(9)

💅 enum icvs_state — the vibe check for your device, bestie

okay so this is a page straight out of the ✨ Kernel API Manual ✨ and it's literally just a list of bitfield flags that tell you what mood your device is in rn. no cap, it's giving "status report but make it a mood ring" 🦋

🌸 NAME 🌸

enum icvs_state — device state bitfield flags. that's it, that's the whole thing 💖

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

enum icvs_state {
    ICVS_DEVICE_OFF_STATE ,
    ICVS_DEVICE_PRIVACY_ON ,
    ICVS_DEVICE_ON_STATE ,
    ICVS_DEVICE_SENSOR_OWNER ,
    ICVS_DEVICE_DWNLD_STATE ,
    ICVS_DEVICE_ERROR_STATE ,
    ICVS_DEVICE_BUSY_STATE

};

---

🎀 Constants 🎀

these are the iconic little flags, one per bit, and honestly each one has main character energy:

• ICVS_DEVICE_OFF_STATE — the raw zero value, bestie. device is powered off or just not ready yet. we've all been there 💀
• ICVS_DEVICE_PRIVACY_ON — privacy mode is active, meaning the LED is asserted and/or the stream is gated. privacy queen behavior 🫶
• ICVS_DEVICE_ON_STATE — device is powered and actually responsive to protocol commands. slay, it's awake 🔥
• ICVS_DEVICE_SENSOR_OWNER — CVS currently owns the attached CSI sensor. it's their sensor now, no sharing 👑
• ICVS_DEVICE_DWNLD_STATE — firmware download / flash operation in progress. do not disturb, flashing ✨
• ICVS_DEVICE_ERROR_STATE — device has reported an error (go query ICVS_GET_DEV_ERR_CODE 😭). not the vibe, but at least it told you
• ICVS_DEVICE_BUSY_STATE — device is busy processing a prior command. it's booked and busy, respectfully 🙈

---

💜 Description 💜

so these flags correspond to bits in the device state byte that comes back via GET_DEV_STATE, and they get decoded in union icvs_dev_state. multiple bits may be asserted at the same time — it's a whole bitfield moment, not a one-flag-at-a-time situation. reserved bits are omitted, so if you were looking for extra lore, there is none ⭐

ngl, the whole point is: read the state byte, vibe check the flags, react accordingly 💅
