STRUCT TEGRA_VI(9)

💖 struct tegra_vi(9) 💖

Okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual, section 9 — yes we're in the kernel docs, yes it's a whole vibe. Today's main character is struct tegra_vi, aka the NVIDIA Tegra Video Input device structure. It's giving "I hold the whole VI device together and I don't even brag about it." 🌈✨

✨ NAME ✨

struct tegra_vi — the NVIDIA Tegra Video Input device structure. That's it, that's the whole glow-up. 👑

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

struct tegra_vi {
    struct device *dev;
    struct host1x_client client;
    void __iomem *iomem;
    struct clk *clk;
    const struct tegra_vi_soc *soc;
    const struct tegra_vi_ops *ops;
    struct list_head vi_chans;
 };

Look at her. Seven members, zero notes. 💅

🌸 Members 🌸

Every field is a lil icon and here's what each one actually does, no cap:

• dev — the device struct, fr fr. Your classic device representation, living its best life.
• client — a host1x_client struct. That's the host1x hookup, iykyk.
• iomem — the register base. This is where the hardware registers live, so like… the address of the whole operation. 📍
• clk — the main clock for the VI block. She keeps time, literally. ⏰
• soc — a pointer to the SoC data structure. Different Tegra chips, different lore — this points at whichever one we're on. 🔍
• ops — the vi operations. All the "what can this thing actually do" energy. 🔥
• vi_chans — the list head for VI channels. It's the starting point of the channel list — very "head of the group chat" of it. 💬

Real talk: these are struct members, so don't go writing them like function args, bestie. Read the source if you're unsure — accuracy is the whole aesthetic. 🎀

🧚 SEE ALSO 🧚

The kernel file ./drivers/staging/media/tegra-video/vi.h struct — yes, go read it, it's all there:

• struct tegra_vi_ops(9)
• struct tegra_vi_soc(9)
• struct tegra_vi_channel(9)
• struct tegra_channel_buffer(9)
• struct tegra_video_format(9)

All of them linked together like a little friend group. Click through, you'll be obsessed. 🫶

Sign-off time, bestie ✨ This lil page came out of ./drivers/staging/media/tegra-... and it's dated October 2026 — and it's the struct tegra_vi(9) page, obviously. Go forth and slay your media driver. 💜🎀
