STRUCT ICVS_VC_CONFIG(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ¦‹ struct icvs_vc_config(9) β€” bestie edition πŸ¦‹

okay so this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual, and it's literally just one little struct, but she's important. it's struct icvs_vc_config, the virtual channel configuration, and we're gonna get into it together, no cap. πŸ’…


✨ NAME ✨

struct icvs_vc_config β€” the virtual channel configuration. that's her. that's the whole vibe. πŸŽ€


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

here's the shape of it, character for character, don't touch:

struct icvs_vc_config {
    u8 vc;
    u8 dt_count;
    struct icvs_dt_config dt_configs[4];
    u8 reserved[6];
 };

like… look at her. four whole data type configs in a little row, plus six bytes of reserved space just chilling. she's organized. she's giving main character energy. ✨


πŸ’– Members πŸ’–

okay so let's meet the members one by one, they all matter, we're not skipping anybody:

  • vc β€” the virtual channel index, and it lives in the range 0-31. that's it, that's the number, that's the channel. πŸ¦‹
  • dt_count β€” the number of data types configured. how many data types we got in here? this member knows. πŸ™ˆ
  • dt_configs β€” the array of data type configurations, and it holds up to 4. yes, four is the max, we said what we said. struct icvs_dt_config dt_configs[4], iconic. πŸ‘‘
  • reserved β€” reserved for future use. bestie is just sitting there holding space for the future. we love a forward-thinking queen. u8 reserved[6], six whole bytes of potential. πŸ’œ

ngl, the whole thing lives in ./drivers/media/i2c/cvs and the manual page itself says October 2026, and the title up top is struct icvs_vc_config(9) β€” iykyk. 🫢

and that's the page, bestie! πŸ’– go forth and configure your virtual channels responsibly. mwah. πŸŽ€βœ¨πŸ“
