STRUCT DFL_CHARDEV_INFO(9)
π NAME π
struct dfl_chardev_info β the chardev info of a dfl feature device, bestie β¨
Like, it's the little bundle of facts that tells you everything about a char device: what it's called and where it lives in devt-land. That's it, that's the whole vibe π (and no, it's not the Kernel API Manual β that's just the manual it lives in, okay? group chat clarified it π
)
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
struct dfl_chardev_info {
const char *name;
dev_t devt;
};
Two members. Two. And they're both doing their little jobs. Iconic behavior, honestly π«Ά

nameβ the name string of the char device π·οΈ (fun fact: the original page spells it "nmae" and likeβ¦ same, girl, my fingers do that too π but it'sname, promise)devtβ thedevtof the char device. Yes. It's giving "the thing is the thing" π it's the device number, and it's right there, being adev_t, living its main character life π

Okay so this is the part where the page just links its entire friend group. No gatekeeping π
all of these are (9) kernel API pages, go say hi:
- the kernel file

ngl the double-underscore on __dfl_fpga_cdev_find_port_data(9) is lowkey intimidating and I respect it π
okay that's the whole page, you ate that π β¨
Sign-off time, because the footer deserves its moment too π this one comes to you from ./drivers/fpga, dated October 2026 β yes, 2026, we're manifesting the future, and it's still titled struct dfl_chardev_info(9). byeee, go read the whole friend group π¦π
