v4l2_rect_same_size(9)

💅 v4l2_rect_same_size — kernel API manual, bestie edition 🎀

okay so real talk, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and honestly? it's a tiny little icon and i'm obsessed with it. let's get into it ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

v4l2_rect_same_size — returns true if r1 has the same size as r2. that's it. that's the whole job. no cap. 💖

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bool v4l2_rect_same_size (const struct v4l2_rect *r1 , const struct v4l2_rect *r2 );

look at that signature. she's giving "two pointers, one truth" 🦋 and she returns a bool, so you already know the answer is gonna be a yes or a no, no in-between, periodt.

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• r1 — a rectangle. that's the whole description. a rectangle. iconic minimalism, honestly 💅
• r2 — also a rectangle. matching energy. we love a symmetrical cast 🫶

---

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

so the way this works is: return true if both rectangles have the same size. that's the entire vibe check. two rects walk in, the function looks at their sizes, and if they match it's true, bestie 💖

ngl it does not say anything about position here, so don't come for me — it's literally just the size check. there's a whole other function for position and you know it's in SEE ALSO 👀
