STRUCT VMMOUSE_DATA(9)

🌸 NAME 🌸

okay so struct vmmouse_data is the private data structure for the vmmouse driver — and this is the Kernel API Manual page for struct vmmouse_data(9), bestie. No cap, it's the driver's own little private-data moment. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

Here's the whole struct, because we do not mess with code:

struct vmmouse_data {
    struct input_dev *abs_dev;
    char phys[32];
    char dev_name[128];
 };

🎀 Members 🎀

• abs_dev — the "Absolute" device used to report absolute mouse movement. It's giving absolute-device main character energy.
• phys — physical path for the absolute device. Literally the absolute device's physical-path bestie.
• dev_name — name attribute name for the absolute device. Yes, "name attribute name" — iconic phrasing, no notes.
