vb2_verify_memory_type(9)

💅✨ vb2_verify_memory_type in the Kernel API Manual ✨💅

okay so bestie, welcome to this lil page from the Kernel API Manual — today’s main character is vb2_verify_memory_type, and she is literally here to do a compatibility vibe check. 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

vb2_verify_memory_type — checks whether the memory type and buffer type passed to a buffer operation are compatible with the queue. no cap. 💖

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int vb2_verify_memory_type (struct vb2_queue *q , enum vb2_memory memory
       , unsigned int type );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• q — pointer to struct vb2_queue with videobuf2 queue. this is the queue bestie in question, periodt. 👑
• memory — the memory model, as defined by enum vb2_memory. literally the memory vibe check. 🧚
• type — private buffer type whose content is defined by the vb2-core caller. For example, for V4L2, it should match the types defined on enum v4l2_buf_type. iykyk. 💅
