STRUCT MEDIA_INTF_DEVNODE(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 struct media_intf_devnode(9) 💅

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual — yes bestie, the kernel has lore too, and this particular page is all about struct media_intf_devnode, the little struct that lets a media interface show up as a device node. iconic behavior honestly 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

struct media_intf_devnode — a media interface via a device node. that's it, that's the whole vibe 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct media_intf_devnode {
    struct media_interface          intf;
    u32 major;
    u32 minor;
 };

look at her. three members. immaculate. no notes 💅

💖 Members 💖

  • intf — the embedded interface object 🫶 like, the whole interface, just chillin' inside this struct. it's giving "nested but thriving".
  • major — major number of a device node 🔥 the big one, the headliner, the main character energy.
  • minor — minor number of a device node ⭐ the supporting role that literally cannot be skipped.

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

so here's the thing — this struct does not exist in a vacuum, and the cross-reference list is genuinely enormous. buckle up, bestie, we're going through the whole friend group. every single one of them, no cap 🙈

Kernel file ./include/media/media-entity.h:

like I said. the whole group chat. every last one of them, and I would never leave a single one on read 🧚💜

btw intf_to_devnode(9) is in there and it's literally the glow-up path from intf to this struct — iykyk 🌈

and that's the page, bestie! 💖 straight from the kernel file ./include/media — the October 2026 edition of the Kernel API Manual, no less ⭐ slay, stay hydrated, and go read your structs 🍓💅
