π struct xvip_device(9) π
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. β¨
πΈ NAME πΈ
struct xvip_device β the Xilinx Video IP device structure. that's it, that's the whole vibe check. π
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
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. π

okay so let's meet the cast π«Ά
subdevβ the V4L2 subdevice. this is the whole reason we're here ngl, it's the V4L2 subdevice part of the deal.devβ the (OF) device. yes, "OF" is literally in the manual and we are keeping it. πiomemβ the device I/O register space, remapped to kernel virtual memory. like, the registers, but living in kernel virtual memory now. iconic relocation. βclkβ the video core clock. she keeps time. punctuality queen. πsaved_ctrlβ 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. π
