ir_xmp_decode(9)

✨ NAME ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to ir_xmp_decode(9) from the Kernel API Manual — this is the function that decodes one XMP pulse or space. literally one. iconic little job 💅✨

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

int ir_xmp_decode (struct rc_dev *dev , struct ir_raw_event ev );

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• dev — the struct rc_dev descriptor of the device. it's giving “which device are we even talking about” energy 🫶
• ev — the struct ir_raw_event descriptor of the pulse/space. the actual pulse-or-space moment in question 🌸

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the tea, bestie: this function returns -EINVAL if the pulse violates the state machine. that's the vibe. no cap 😭

lowkey important: the specific return to watch for is -EINVAL, and it happens when the pulse violates the state machine. periodt 💀
