STRUCT INTEL_VSEC_PLATFORM_INFO(9)

💅 NAME 💅

struct intel_vsec_platform_info — the platform-specific data vibe check, aka all the extra little deets your platform wants to hand over 🫶

Bestie, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's genuinely iconic. Let's get into it ✨

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

struct intel_vsec_platform_info {
    struct device *parent;
    struct intel_vsec_header **headers;
    const struct vsec_feature_dependency *deps;
    u32 (*acpi_disc)[PMT_DISC_DWORDS];
    enum intel_vsec_disc_source src;
    void *priv_data;
    unsigned long caps;
    unsigned long quirks;
    u64 base_addr;
    int num_deps;
 };

It's giving "one struct, ten members, zero chill" — every field is laid out below 💖

🌸 Members 🌸

• parent — the parent device in the auxbus chain. Like, the main character's parent, literally the whole family tree 🌈
• headers — the list of headers that define which PMT client devices get created. Think of it as the guest list for the PMT party 🎀
• deps — an array of feature dependencies. Every feature has its lil prerequisites, no cap 😭
• acpi_disc — the ACPI discovery tables, and listen — each entry is two QWORDs in little-endian format as defined by the PMT ACPI spec. Valid only when provider == INTEL_VSEC_DISC_ACPI. Not me warning you about that condition, but also, I'm warning you about that condition 🙈
• src — the source of the discovery table data. Where the data came from, iykyk 💅
• priv_data — private data, usable by parent devices, currently a callback. Private means private, bestie 💜
• caps — a bitmask of the PMT capabilities for the given headers. Capability check: passed 👑
• quirks — a bitmask of VSEC device quirks. Your fave device might be a little quirky and that's fine 🦋
• base_addr — lets you specify a base address rather than having it derived. You're allowed to just... say it. Main character energy ⭐
• num_deps — the count of feature dependencies. Somebody has to keep track of the number 🔥

🫶 cute lil sign-off: this one lives over at ./include/linux, dated October 2026, and yes — it's struct intel_vsec_platform_info(9) if you're looking it up by name. Slay, mwah 💋
