STRUCT FIMC_IS_SENSOR(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

✨ struct fimc_is_sensor(9) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual πŸ’… this one's a little struct from the kernel, and honestly? she's giving "small but iconic." we're talking about struct fimc_is_sensor β€” the fimc-is sensor data structure. yes, that's literally what it is. no cap. πŸŽ€


πŸ¦‹ NAME πŸ¦‹

struct fimc_is_sensor β€” the fimc-is sensor data structure, periodt. it's the little bundle of info that describes a sensor. 🌸


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

here's the whole vibe, verbatim, don't touch:

struct fimc_is_sensor {
    const struct sensor_drv_data *drvdata;
    unsigned int i2c_bus;
    u8 test_pattern;
 };

like, that's her. three members. main character energy for real. πŸ‘‘


πŸ’– Members πŸ’–

okay so let's meet the cast, one by one:

  • drvdata β€” a pointer to the sensor's parameters data structure. she's basically the sensor's whole personality profile, stored somewhere else. iconic. 🫢
  • i2c_bus β€” the ISP I2C bus index, and the range is 0...1. so like, two buses max, choose wisely bestie. 🚌
  • test_pattern β€” true to enable the video test pattern. that's it. that's the whole member. turn it on and you get a test pattern, slay. 🌈
ngl, this struct is tiny, but every member matters. don't sleep on it. 😭

if you wanna go deeper (and you know you do), the kernel file lives right here:

./drivers/media/platform/samsung/exynos4-is/fimc-is-sensor.h

go read it, iykyk. πŸ“–βœ¨


and that's the whole page, bestie! πŸŽ€ this gem came from the Kernel API Manual, dated October 2026 β€” with the source path sketched out as ./drivers/media/platform/samsu... (they truncated it, not me, blame the footer πŸ’€). anyway, go forth and sensor responsibly. mwah. πŸ’œπŸ¦‹πŸŒΈ
