πŸ’… struct wmi_device(9) β€” Kernel API Manual realness

okay so bestie, welcome to the glow-up era of the Linux kernel API manual β€” this is struct wmi_device(9), and she's the whole vibe check for WMI devices. let's get into it πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

struct wmi_device β€” the WMI device structure, no cap. she's the blueprint πŸ’–


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct wmi_device {
    struct device dev;
    bool setable;
 };

literally just two members. two. iconic minimalism. (yes, that stray space before the closing brace is canon, don't @ me πŸ™ˆ)


πŸ‘‘ Members πŸ‘‘

  • dev β€” the Device associated with this WMI device. like, her actual device identity, attached and everything 🫢
  • setable β€” True for devices implementing the Set Control Method. so if your device can set things, this is True, and that's the whole tea ⭐

πŸ¦‹ Description πŸ¦‹

This represents WMI devices discovered by the WMI driver core. that's it, that's the lore β€” she's the struct that stands for the WMI devices the WMI driver core has found, and honestly? slay πŸ’…
