STRUCT DRM_CONNECTOR_TV_MARGINS(9)

💖 struct drm_connector_tv_margins(9) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — yes we're in that part of the kernel today, the DRM connector zone, and honestly? it's giving cozy TV setup vibes 🌸

---

✨ NAME ✨

struct drm_connector_tv_margins — the TV connector margins, aka the lil' picture frame around your image 🖼️

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

struct drm_connector_tv_margins {
    unsigned int bottom;
    unsigned int left;
    unsigned int right;
    unsigned int top;
 };

that's it. four unsigned ints. four. that's the whole struct and honestly? she's iconic for it, no notes 🔥

---

🦋 MEMBERS 🦋

• bottom — the bottom margin, measured in pixels. yes bestie, pixels, the unit of our people ✨
• left — the left margin, in pixels, doing the left-side thing 💅
• right — the right margin, in pixels, matching energy on the other side 🫶
• top — the top margin, in pixels, sitting pretty up there 👑

---

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

so what this actually describes is — drumroll — the margins in pixels that you put around the image on TV connectors, specifically to deal with overscan. that's it, that's the whole job 🎯

like, your TV is out here cropping edges like it's got main character energy, and this struct is the polite little boundary that says "excuse me ma'am, please don't eat the picture" 😭✨

💀 reminder bestie: those are the margins in pixels for overscan on TV connectors. that's the fact. don't go inventing behaviour, that's not the vibe 🙈

okay and one last lil sign-off 🎀 — this page lives in ./include/drm, and it's dated October 2026, so like… future queen behavior honestly. mwah 💋✨
