💅 img_ir_decoder_compatible(9) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — this one's a little function with one (1) job and it does it slayfully. It's called img_ir_decoder_compatible, and yes, that name is a mouthful, but it's literally just asking: "hey, will this decoder actually work with this device?" vibe check energy fr fr 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

img_ir_decoder_compatible — Find whether a decoder will work with a device. That's it, that's the whole mission, and honestly? Iconic. 👑

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

bool img_ir_decoder_compatible (struct img_ir_priv *priv , const struct img_ir_decoder *dec );

Look at her. Returns a bool, takes two pointers, no drama, no cap. 💖

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

  • priv — the IR private data. Like, the device's whole personal little world of IR info. 🫶
  • dec — the decoder you're checking. The one you're side-eyeing and going "hmm, are you compatible or not?" 🙈

💜 RETURN 💜

Returns true if dec is compatible with the device that priv refers to. That's the whole answer bestie — true means yes, they're a match, main character couple energy. 🌈

lowkey important: it's a bool, so don't go expecting anything fancier than a true/false situation. Keep it simple, periodt. 💅
