STRUCT VENC_VPU_IPI_MSG_COMMON(9)

💖 NAME 💖

struct venc_vpu_ipi_msg_common — the VPU ack AP cmd common structure, bestie. Yes that's a lot of acronyms and yes we're gonna get through it together 🫶

Okay so real talk, this page lives in the Kernel API Manual, and it's one of those little struct pages that's short but lowkey important. Let's go ✨

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct venc_vpu_ipi_msg_common {
    uint32_t msg_id;
    uint32_t status;
    uint64_t venc_inst;
};

Three fields. That's the whole vibe. Iconic honestly 🎀

---

✨ Members ✨

• msg_id — the message id, and it's a VPU_IPIMSG_XXX_DONE situation. That's literally the exact placeholder in the source, not me being cute for once 💅
• status — the cmd status, typed as venc_ipi_msg_status. If something went sideways, this is where the tea is 🍓
• venc_inst — the AP encoder instance, and it's a struct venc_vp8_inst/venc_h264_inst * pointer. So it's either the VP8 one or the H264 one, depending on which encoder you're rolling with. Main character pointer energy 👑

Not me pointing out that these are just the member docs and there's genuinely nothing else on this page. Short page, big slay 🔥

🦋 SEE ALSO 🦋

The Kernel file this struct calls home is:

./drivers/media/platform/mediatek/vcodec/encoder/venc_ipi_msg.h

And it keeps the most delicious company, fr fr — go read these next:

• struct venc_ap_ipi_msg_init(9)
• struct venc_ap_ipi_msg_set_param(9)
• struct venc_ap_ipi_msg_enc(9)
• struct venc_ap_ipi_msg_enc_ext(9)
• struct venc_ap_ipi_msg_enc_ext_34(9)
• struct venc_ap_ipi_msg_deinit(9)
• struct venc_vpu_ipi_msg_init(9)
• struct venc_vpu_ipi_msg_set_param(9)
• enum venc_ipi_msg_enc_state(9)
• struct venc_vpu_ipi_msg_enc(9)
• struct venc_vpu_ipi_msg_deinit(9)

That's the whole friend group, no cap 🌈

💜 Sign-off 💜

Source and version: ./drivers/media/platform/media... — dated October 2026, and the page title is struct venc_...i_msg_common(9) because somebody's terminal was clearly not wide enough 😭

Anyway. Go forth, define your structs, and remember: msg_id, status, venc_inst. Three fields, zero stress. Periodt 💅✨🌸
