STRUCT MTK_MDP_DEV(9)

💅 struct mtk_mdp_dev(9) — the Kernel API Manual glow-up ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual entry for struct mtk_mdp_dev(9) — yes that's the manual name, iykyk, we're doing this 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

struct mtk_mdp_dev — the abstraction for the image processor entity, periodt 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

struct mtk_mdp_dev {
    struct mutex                    lock;
    struct mutex                    vpulock;
    struct platform_device          *pdev;
    struct mtk_mdp_variant          *variant;
    u16 id;
    struct list_head                comp_list;
    struct v4l2_m2m_dev             *m2m_dev;
    struct list_head                ctx_list;
    struct video_device             *vdev;
    struct v4l2_device              v4l2_dev;
    struct workqueue_struct         *job_wq;
    struct platform_device          *vpu_dev;
    int ctx_num;
    unsigned long                   id_counter;
    struct workqueue_struct         *wdt_wq;
    struct work_struct              wdt_work;
 };

like, look at her. main character struct energy 👑

• lock — the mutex protecting this data structure, no cap. she guards the whole vibe 💅
• vpulock — the mutex protecting the communication with VPU. yes, another one. two locks, two moods 😭
• pdev — pointer to the image processor platform device 🦋
• variant — the IP variant information, aka which flavor of silicon we're dealing with ✨
• id — image processor device index, literally 0..MTK_MDP_MAX_DEVS 🍓
• comp_list — list of MDP function components 🌈
• m2m_dev — v4l2 memory-to-memory device data, the m2m icon herself 💖
• ctx_list — list of struct mtk_mdp_ctx 🧚
• vdev — video device for image processor driver 📹
• v4l2_dev — V4L2 device to register video devices for. (that trailing period is canon, keep it 💀)
• job_wq — processor work queue 🔥
• vpu_dev — VPU platform device 👑
• ctx_num — counter of active MTK MDP context 🔢
• id_counter — an integer id given to the next opened context ⭐
