STRUCT RC_FILTER_ATTRIBUTE(9)

💅 struct rc_filter_attribute(9) — like, the whole vibe

ok so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and today's main character is struct rc_filter_attribute — a lil struct that's literally all about device attributes relating to a filter type. that's the whole job. she's a small queen but she's doing it 💅

---

✨ NAME ✨

struct rc_filter_attribute — Device attribute relating to a filter type. no cap, that's it, that's her whole thing 🎀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

ok bestie here's the actual struct, written out exactly, don't @ me:

struct rc_filter_attribute {
    struct device_attribute         attr;
    enum rc_filter_type             type;
    bool mask;
 };

like, three fields. three. and she slays every one of them 💖

✨ Members ✨

welcome to the member tour, pls keep your hands inside the ride 🦋

• attr — Device attribute. yes bestie that's the whole description, it's the struct device_attribute doing device-attribute things, iconic behavior honestly 👑
• type — Filter type. it's an enum rc_filter_type, and it tells you which filter type we're talking about. iykyk 🌸
• mask — okay this one's lowkey the most interesting one: it's a bool, and it's false for a filter value, and true for a filter mask. literally a vibe check in boolean form ⭐

lowkey note: this page lives under ./drivers/media/rc — that's the part of the kernel where the remote-control magic happens, and it's honestly giving main character energy 🔥

ok so that's the whole page!! you now know struct rc_filter_attribute better than you know your own phone's settings menu 🧚

cute lil sign-off: this page comes from the source path ./drivers/media/rc, and it's dated October 2026 — so screenshot it, cite it, love it, periodt 💜💅
