STRUCT RMI_DEVICE(9)

💅 struct rmi_device(9) 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the kernel API manual, section 9 — this one is literally about struct rmi_device, which represents an RMI4 sensor device on the RMI bus. yes, that whole sentence is the vibe. it's giving "small struct, big responsibilities" and i'm obsessed 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

struct rmi_device — the struct that represents an RMI4 sensor device on the RMI bus. that's it, that's the whole name section, she's concise and she ate 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct rmi_device {
    struct device dev;
    int number;
    struct rmi_driver *driver;
    struct rmi_transport_dev *xport;
 };

look at her. four members. no cap, she's not doing too much, she's just existing on the bus and living her main character life ✨

🎀 Members 🎀

okay so let's meet the members one by one, they all have a job and they all do it well:

• dev — the device created for the RMI bus. that's her whole identity on the bus fr fr 🦋
• number — a unique number for the device on the bus. yes, unique. don't be out here duplicating numbers, that's not the vibe 💀
• driver — a pointer to the associated driver. her plus her driver, iconic duo, no notes 👑
• xport — a pointer to the transport interface. the way she just has a transport interface, lowkey highkey essential 🌈

if you're the type of person who reads the whole group chat before replying (respect), here's everything else you should look at — and yes, i'm listing every single one because we don't skip references in this house:

• Kernel file ./include/linux/rmi.h
• struct rmi_2d_axis_alignment(9)
• struct rmi_gpio_data(9)
• struct rmi_f01_power_management(9)

go read them bestie, they're all right there and they all slay in their own way ⭐

ngl, this page is short and sweet — so like, don't go making up extra fields for this struct, okay? what's listed is what's real. iykyk 🙈

and that's the page!! 🎀 this gem lives over at ./include/linux, stamped October 2026, and it's part of the Kernel API Manual — so like, she's official, she's dated, she's documented, and she's absolutely thriving. mwah 💋💜
