💖 xcb_dri3_fence_from_fd 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the xcb_dri3_fence_from_fd page from the XCB Requests manual — yes, that's the manual name, we're in the XCB corner of the X11 universe 🌈

✨ NAME ✨

xcb_dri3_fence_from_fd -

ngl the description after that dash is literally empty. the manpage authors left it blank. not me reading it three times thinking my terminal was broken 😭 it's just… nothing. iconic behaviour honestly 💀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <xcb/dri3.h>

🎀 Request function 🎀

xcb_void_cookie_t xcb_dri3_fence_from_fd(xcb_connection_t *conn,
       xcb_drawable_t drawable, uint32_t fence,
       uint8_t initially_triggered, int32_t fence_fd);

✨ REQUEST ARGUMENTS ✨

  • conn — the XCB connection to X11. your link to the mothership, fr fr 🛰️
  • drawable — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. yeah. that's the whole thing. the docs said "later" and later never came 🙈
  • fence — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. mysterious. enigmatic. main character energy with zero backstory ✨
  • initially_triggered — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. we simply do not know. the vibes are unknown 💀
  • fence_fd — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. no thoughts, no docs, only vibes 🦋

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

bestie. there is genuinely no description on this page. it's giving empty group chat after someone says "we need to talk". the DESCRIPTION section exists and contains absolutely nothing, and I'm not about to make stuff up about it because that would be lying to you and we don't do that here 💅

✨ RETURN VALUE ✨

so it hands you back an xcb_void_cookie_t 💖

any errors (if there even are any) have to be handled over in the event loop, okay? that's just how it is.

but if you'd rather handle errors directly with xcb_request_check instead, then use xcb_dri3_fence_from_fd_checked — that's the checked twin, she's right there 👑 go check xcb-requests(3) for the full details, it's the receipts 🧾

✨ ERRORS ✨

good news, angel: this request does never generate any errors. zero. zilch. clean sheet. she simply does not miss 🫶

✨ SEE ALSO ✨

nothing listed here either. an empty SEE ALSO. we're really out here on our own, bestie 🧚 the page just… ends. no cross-references. no crumbs. nothing.

like, if you find something wrong, tell the mailing list, don't just suffer in silence 🙏

and that's the whole page, babes 🌸 this one came from X Version 11, shipped with libxcb 1.17.0 — so if you ever see those version numbers floating around in your man output, that's us, that's the era we're living in ✨💖 stay hydrated, read your manpages, periodt 💅
