STRUCT IMG_IR_SCANCODE_REQ(9)

💅 struct img_ir_scancode_req(9) — like, the whole Kernel API Manual moment

okay so bestie, welcome to the glow-up of struct img_ir_scancode_req(9) — the Kernel API Manual page you didn't know you needed until right now. no cap, this one's short but she's iconic. ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

struct img_ir_scancode_req — Scancode request data. that's it. that's the vibe. 🎀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

here's the whole struct, copy-pasted exactly because we do not mess with the source, periodt:

struct img_ir_scancode_req {
    enum rc_proto protocol;
    u32 scancode;
    u8 toggle;
 };

yes bestie, she's three fields. small but mighty. 🦋

💖 protocol

Protocol code of received message (defaults to RC_PROTO_UNKNOWN).

so if nobody sets this, it just sits there being RC_PROTO_UNKNOWN — relatable, honestly. 🙈

⭐ scancode

Scan code of received message (must be written by handler if IMG_IR_SCANCODE is returned).

🚨 okay this one is important, bestie — if the handler returns IMG_IR_SCANCODE, it must write this. that's not a suggestion, that's the law (well, the API contract). don't leave her empty, she'll be so embarrassed. 😭

🌈 toggle

Toggle bit (defaults to 0).

starts at 0, living its simple life, until somebody toggles it. we love a low-maintenance icon. 💅
