STRUCT XVIP_DEVICE(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’– struct xvip_device(9) πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β€” and specifically to the page for struct xvip_device, the Xilinx Video IP device structure. yes it's a struct. yes it's important. no we're not skipping it. ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

struct xvip_device β€” the Xilinx Video IP device structure. that's it, that's the whole vibe check. πŸŽ€


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

here's the whole thing, copied exactly because we do not mess with code:

struct xvip_device {
    struct v4l2_subdev subdev;
    struct device *dev;
    void __iomem *iomem;
    struct clk *clk;
    u32 saved_ctrl;
 };

look at it. it's giving "small but mighty". main character struct energy fr fr. πŸ’…


πŸ‘‘ Members πŸ‘‘

okay so let's meet the cast 🫢

  • subdev β€” the V4L2 subdevice. this is the whole reason we're here ngl, it's the V4L2 subdevice part of the deal.
  • dev β€” the (OF) device. yes, "OF" is literally in the manual and we are keeping it. 😭
  • iomem β€” the device I/O register space, remapped to kernel virtual memory. like, the registers, but living in kernel virtual memory now. iconic relocation. ⭐
  • clk β€” the video core clock. she keeps time. punctuality queen. 🌈
  • saved_ctrl β€” the saved control register for resume / suspend. it's basically a little memory scrapbook so your control register doesn't forget who it is when the system naps. πŸ’€

alright bestie, that's the whole page!! thank you for coming to my ted talk, you ate that πŸ’–βœ¨πŸ¦‹ β€” this one's from the kernel source tree at ./drivers/media/platform/xilinx, dated October 2026, and it's titled struct xvip_device(9) in case you forgot already. mwah. πŸŽ€πŸ’…πŸŒΈ
