🌸 NAME 🌸

okay bestie, welcome to the xvip_of_get_format(9) page in the Kernel API Manual — yes, we're in kernel-land and it's giving main character energy ✨

• xvip_of_get_format — parse a device tree node and return format information 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

const struct xvip_video_format * xvip_of_get_format (struct device_node
       *node );

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• node — the device tree node 🦋

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the vibe: it reads the xlnx,video-format, xlnx,video-width, and xlnx,cfa-pattern properties from the device tree node you passed as an argument, then returns the corresponding format information. no cap, that's literally the whole move 😌💖

---

💖 RETURN 💖

a pointer to the format information structure corresponding to the format name and width — or ERR_PTR if no corresponding format can be found 🫶

bestie, if nothing matches, it's not gonna fake it: you get ERR_PTR and that's the truth 🙈
