STRUCT PDS_CORE_FW_COMPONENT_INFO(9)

💖 struct pds_core_fw_component_info(9) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — this one's a struct page, and it's literally the GET_COMPONENT_INFO entry. Think of it as the little ID card a firmware component hands over when the driver's like "hi, who are you and what version are you running?" 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

struct pds_core_fw_component_info — the GET_COMPONENT_INFO entry, periodt. 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

here's the whole shape of it, no cap, copied exactly:

struct pds_core_fw_component_info {
  #define PDS_CORE_FW_COMPONENT_NAME_BUFLEN 24;
   char name[PDS_CORE_FW_COMPONENT_NAME_BUFLEN];
   u8 component_type;
   u8 rsvd[3];
   __le16 flags;
   u8 identifier;
   u8 slot_id;
  #define PDS_CORE_FW_COMPONENT_VER_BUFLEN 32;
   char version[PDS_CORE_FW_COMPONENT_VER_BUFLEN];
 };

like, look at her. she's got two #defines tucked inside her own body. iconic behavior honestly. 🦋

💜 Members 💜

• name — the component's name. her government name, if you will 🫶
• component_type — an enum pds_core_fw_component_type situation, so you know what kind of component she is
• rsvd — word boundary padding 💀 yes it's just vibes and empty space, but alignment is real and we respect it
• flags — an enum pds_core_component_info_flags, the little metadata stickers 🎀
• identifier — the component's identifier (her @ handle, lowkey)
• slot_id — the component's slot identifier, aka which slot she's living in 🏠
• version — the component's version, so you know exactly which era of her you're dealing with ⭐

like that's a whole group chat right there, and yes you should read all of them, iykyk 😭

okay that's the whole page bestie, you ate that 💅✨

sign-off time 🫶: this one comes from ./include/linux/pds, dated October 2026 — so like, from the future apparently?? slay. 🌈💖
