STRUCT VMW_SCREEN_TARGET_DISPLAY_UNIT(9)

🌸 NAME 🌸

struct vmw_screen_target_display_unit — conglomerated STDU structure

okay bestie, this is the struct vmw_...display_unit(9) page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's literally all about that conglomerated STDU structure. lowkey iconic. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

okay so here's the exact shape of it — copy it character for character, no cap:

       struct vmw_screen_target_display_unit {
           struct vmw_display_unit base;
           struct vmw_surface *display_srf;
           enum stdu_content_type content_fb_type;
           s32 display_width, display_height;
           bool defined;
           unsigned int cpp;
        };

🎀 Members 🎀

vibe check on every single member, bestie — all of them, none skipped:

• base — the VMW specific DU structure.
• display_srf — the surface to be displayed, bestie. The dimension of this will always match the display mode. If the display mode matches content_vfbs dimensions, then this is a pointer into the corresponding field in content_vfbs. If not, then this is a separate buffer to which content_vfbs will blit to.
• content_fb_type — the content_fb type.
• display_width — display width.
• display_height — display height.
• defined — true if the current display unit has been initialized.
• cpp — Bytes per pixel.
