okay bestie, so this is from the Kernel API Manual and the star of the show is v4l2_fill_mbus_format_mplane(9) — say it with me, it's a mouthful but she's worth it 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

v4l2_fill_mbus_format_mplane — an ancillary routine that fills a &struct v4l2_mbus_framefmt from a &struct v4l2_pix_format_mplane. that's it, that's her job, and she does it flawlessly 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void v4l2_fill_mbus_format_mplane (struct v4l2_mbus_framefmt *mbus_fmt ,
const struct v4l2_pix_format_mplane *pix_mp_fmt );

---

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

• mbus_fmt — pointer to struct v4l2_mbus_framefmt, and this is the one getting filled ✨ she's the canvas, the main character, the empty cup waiting for matcha 🍵
• pix_mp_fmt — pointer to struct v4l2_pix_format_mplane, and this one is the model — the reference, the blueprint, the inspo board that mbus_fmt is copying from 📋💖
