📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 idpf_is_hsplit_supported — kernel API manual, bestie edition

okay so real talk, this one is from the Kernel API Manual (section 9, kernel dev girlies know) and it's genuinely one of the chillest little helpers in the whole idpf family. no cap.

✨ NAME ✨

idpf_is_hsplit_supported — literally just checks whether the header split is supported 🎀

like that's it. that's the whole job. she's a yes/no girlie.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

bool idpf_is_hsplit_supported(const struct idpf_vport *vport);

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • vport — the virtual port you're checking the capability for 💖 it's a const struct idpf_vport *, so we're just looking, not touching, respectful queen behavior

👑 RETURN 👑

  • returns true if it's supported by the HW/FW 🔥
  • returns false if not 💀

that's the entire vibe check. hardware says yes or hardware says no, and this function is the messenger 🫶

ngl this is the kind of function you call before you commit to a header split, so you don't embarrass yourself in front of the firmware. very main character energy of you to check first. ✨

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

buckle up bestie, this cross-reference list is long — but every single one of these is iconic in her own right 💅

and that's the whole page, bestie 💜 go forth and check your header split support responsibly ✨
