✨ struct fw_rsc_hdr(9) ✨

okay bestie, buckle up β€” this is the struct fw_rsc_hdr page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's honestly shorter than my attention span but it's important so let's go πŸ’…


🌸 NAME 🌸

struct fw_rsc_hdr β€” the firmware resource entry header, aka the little name tag every resource wears πŸŽ€


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

struct fw_rsc_hdr {
    u32 type;
    u8 data[];
};

πŸ’– Members πŸ’–

  • type β€” the resource type. literally what kind of resource this is, iykyk πŸ”₯
  • data β€” the resource data. this is where the actual content lives 🫢

⭐ Description ⭐

so here's the vibe check: every resource entry starts with a struct fw_rsc_hdr header, and that header is what tells you its type πŸ’«

the content of the entry itself comes immediately right after this header β€” like, no gap, no little buffer zone, it's giving clingy best friend energy 😭 β€” and you should parse that content according to the resource type. no cap, that's the whole deal πŸ‘‘
