πŸ’… struct dvb_usb_driver_info(9) πŸ’…

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ β€” today's main character is struct dvb_usb_driver_info, and honestly? she's giving professional middlewoman. That's right, this struct exists for exactly one iconic job: carrying all the needed data from the device driver over to the general dvb usb routines 🫢. No cap, she's the group chat relay.


✨ NAME ✨

struct dvb_usb_driver_info β€” the structure for carrying all needed data from the device driver to the general dvb usb routines πŸŽ€


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct dvb_usb_driver_info {
    const char *name;
    const char *rc_map;
    const struct dvb_usb_device_properties *props;
 };

look at her, three little fields, absolutely slaying the "just hand off the info" assignment πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ Members πŸ¦‹

  • name β€” the device name, literally just the name of the device, that's it, that's the whole vibe 🏷️
  • rc_map β€” the name of the rc codes table πŸ”‘ (iykyk, it's a name, not the table itself, don't come for me)
  • props β€” the structure containing all device properties πŸ‘‘ this one's the main character of the three, she's carrying everything

Like, go look at the kernel file itself, bestie, it's right here:

  • struct dvb_usb_adapter_properties(9)
  • struct dvb_usb_device_properties(9)
  • struct usb_data_stream(9)
  • struct dvb_usb_adapter(9)
  • struct dvb_usb_device(9)

that's the whole squad, fr fr 🫢🌈


ok and one lil' sign-off moment: this whole masterpiece lives over in ./drivers/media/usb/dvb-usb-v2, and it's dated October 2026 ⭐ β€” so yeah, from the future, keeping it iconic, periodt πŸ’œπŸ§š
