v4l2_rect_same_position(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 v4l2_rect_same_position 💅

okay bestie, so this one's from the Kernel API Manual and it's literally called v4l2_rect_same_position — say that five times fast, i can't 😭. It lives in the kernel's media world and it's honestly so simple it's iconic.

✨ NAME ✨

v4l2_rect_same_position — returns true if r1 has the same position as r2 🎀

Like… that's it. That's the whole job. She's a one-trick pony and she ate. 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

bool v4l2_rect_same_position (const struct v4l2_rect *r1 , const struct v4l2_rect *r2 );

yup, that's the whole signature — no cap. Returns a bool, takes two pointers, zero drama. ✨

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • r1 — a rectangle. that's it, that's the description, she's a rectangle bestie 🫶
  • r2 — another rectangle. second rectangle of the duo, the sidekick, the costar 💖

both of them are const struct v4l2_rect *, so nobody's mutating anything up in here. respectful. 👑

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

Returns true if both rectangles have the same position. 🎯

that's literally the whole thing, highkey the most straightforward function in the entire header file. it's giving "i have one job and i do it flawlessly". position check only — she is NOT checking sizes, she is NOT checking anything else, mind your business. 💀

🧚 SEE ALSO 🧚

all the other rect girlies live in the kernel file ./include/media/v4l2-rect.h — go say hi to the whole friend group 💜:

like yes, there's a whole squad, and every single one of them is a baddie in her own right 🌈

lowkey reminder: this is kernel API stuff, so it's fr fr meant for people writing kernel code — not a casual little shell command you can just vibe with in your terminal 🙈

okay that's the whole page, mwah 💋 — this cutie came from ./include/media and she's dated October 2026, so like, future icon behavior honestly 👑✨🦋💖
