STRUCT S5K6A3(9)

💖 struct s5k6a3(9) 💖

okay so bestie, you know that man page vibe? this is a Kernel API Manual entry and it's literally all about that struct s5k6a3 life — it's giving fimc-is sensor data structure realness, no cap. 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

like, here's the whole squad of members all together, periodt:

struct s5k6a3 {
    struct device *dev;
    struct v4l2_subdev subdev;
    struct media_pad pad;
    struct regulator_bulk_data supplies[S5K6A3_NUM_SUPPLIES];
    struct gpio_desc *gpio_reset;
    struct mutex lock;
    struct v4l2_mbus_framefmt format;
    struct clk *clock;
    int power_count;
};

🌸 Members (the whole cast, iykyk) 🌸

okay so let's meet the characters one by one, bestie:

• dev — ooh this one's the pointer to this I2C client device structure — like, it's literally pointing at where the I2C device lives 💅
• subdev — the image sensor's v4l2 subdev, she's iconic honestly 🦋
• pad — the subdev media source pad ✨ like the plug where the media streams out, slay
• supplies — the image sensor's voltage regulator supplies 🔋 the way this array just has S5K6A3_NUM_SUPPLIES slots... vibes
• gpio_reset — oh this is a GPIO that's literally connected to the sensor's reset pin 🔌 so when you need to boop the reset, that's her
• lock — a mutex protecting the structure's members below 👑 no cap, this is the security guard of the group chat. the members below? they're under lock's protection, fr fr 🫶
• format — the media bus format at the sensor's source pad 🎀 like the aesthetic of the data flowing out
• clock — pointer to struct clk — yup, just a little pointer, that's it, that's the whole tea ⏰
• power_count — tracks state if device is powered ⚡ the way it stores whether the device is awake or napping, main character energy fr

side note bestie: those last few members live under the careful watch of lock, so don't go touching them without holding it, okay? 🙈

okay if you wanna go deeper (and you know you do), check out the kernel file:

./drivers/media/i2c/s5k6a3.c

and yeah that's the whole page, bestie — Kernel file ./drivers/media/i2c/s5k6a3.c, from October 2026 (future vibes ✨), and it's literally the struct s5k6a3(9) page under ./drivers/media/i2c. periodt. 💜🫶🌷
