STRUCT MXC_JPEG_SOF(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸŽ€ struct mxc_jpeg_sof(9) πŸŽ€

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual πŸ’– this one is genuinely iconic β€” it's the struct that holds all the JPEG Start Of Frame marker fields. like, the moment a JPEG walks in and says "hi, here's my whole vibe," this is what catches it. no cap.


✨ NAME ✨

struct mxc_jpeg_sof β€” JPEG Start Of Frame marker fields πŸ¦‹


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

ok so here's the whole shape of her, literally verbatim, do not touch:

struct mxc_jpeg_sof {
    u16 length;
    u8 precision;
    u16 height, width;
    u8 components_no;
    struct mxc_jpeg_sof_comp comp[MXC_JPEG_MAX_COMPONENTS];
 };

like... she's compact, she's organized, she ate. πŸ’…


πŸ‘‘ Members πŸ‘‘

bestie these are the fields, one by one, and yes we're doing all of them 🫢

  • length β€” the Start of Frame length. mmhm. that's the one. ✨
  • precision β€” the precision, and to be super clear: that's bits per pixel per color component. not bits per pixel overall, per component. iykyk 🌈
  • height β€” the image height πŸŽ€
  • width β€” the image width ⭐
  • components_no β€” the number of color components. it's giving headcount energy πŸ’€
  • comp β€” the component fields, one for each color component, living in a comp[MXC_JPEG_MAX_COMPONENTS] array. cute little array of little component structs, obsessed πŸ“
lowkey a reminder that comp is typed struct mxc_jpeg_sof_comp comp[MXC_JPEG_MAX_COMPONENTS]; and MXC_JPEG_MAX_COMPONENTS is literally the cap on how many components you get. don't come for me, that's just what it says πŸ™ˆ

πŸ’œ SEE ALSO πŸ’œ

go read these next, they're all in the same friend group fr fr:

  • Kernel file ./drivers/media/platform/nxp/imx-jpeg/mxc-jpeg.h struct mxc_jpeg_fmt(9)
  • struct mxc_jpeg_sof_comp(9)
  • struct mxc_jpeg_sos_comp(9)
  • struct mxc_jpeg_sos(9)

and that's the whole page, bestie πŸ’– everything checks out, nothing skipped, main character energy only πŸ‘‘

sign-off time πŸŽ€ this little beauty came from the source ./drivers/media/platform/nxp/i... (yes that's the truncated path, that's literally how she's printed, i don't make the rules πŸ’€), dated October 2026, and it's filed under the manual page struct mxc_jpeg_sof(9) πŸ¦‹ go be great, mwah ✨
