STRUCT VMW_VIEW_DEFINE(9)

✨ NAME ✨

okay so this is the struct vmw_view_define(9) page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's literally the view define command body stub. No cap, that's the whole vibe of this little struct. 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

       struct vmw_view_define {
           uint32 view_id;
           uint32 sid;
        };

💅 Members 💅

• view_id — the device id of the view being defined. iconic identifier behavior, fr fr. 🪪
• sid — the surface id of the view being defined. the surface-id bestie. 🌊

🌸 Description 🌸

This generic struct is used by the code to change view_id and sid of a saved view define command. That's it, that's the lore — it's a reusable little command-body stub, lowkey doing exactly what it says on the tin. ✨
