STRUCT MEI_FW_VERSION(9)

✨ NAME ✨

struct mei_fw_version — the MEI FW version struct, bestie 💅 this is literally the little bundle of fields that holds a firmware version number. That's it, that's the whole vibe.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

struct mei_fw_version {
    u8 platform;
    u8 major;
    u16 minor;
    u16 buildno;
    u16 hotfix;
 };

Like, look at her. Five fields. Zero drama. Main character energy fr fr 💖

🎀 Members 🎀

• platform — the platform identifier, i.e. which platform we're talking about 👑
• major — the major version field, the big-number energy one 🌟
• minor — the minor version field, yes it's a u16, no I will not be explaining why, that's just how she is 🙈
• buildno — the build number version field, the "which build was this even" one 🔥
• hotfix — the hotfix number version field, aka the "we patched it at 2am" counter 😭

ngl if you're reading this because you need to parse a firmware version string, go look at mei_fw_status_str(9) down in SEE ALSO — she's the one who actually does the talking 🫶
