XCB_RANDR_SET_PROVIDER_OFFLOAD_SINK_CHECKED(3)

💅 xcb_randr_set_provider_offload_sink — the manual page bestie

okay so this is a page from the XCB Requests corner of the libxcb world, and it's giving very niche, very "iykyk" energy. It lives in xcb_randr_set_provider_offload_sink(3) and it is, no cap, one of the shortest manpages you will ever meet. Let's get into it. 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

xcb_randr_set_provider_offload_sink — and that's literally it, the original page just leaves a lil dash hanging there with nothing after it. The name is the whole personality. 💀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

First things first, you gotta pull in the header:

#include <xcb/randr.h>

🦋 Request function 🦋

here's the signature, copy it exactly bestie, no improvising:

xcb_void_cookie_t
       xcb_randr_set_provider_offload_sink(xcb_connection_t *conn,
       xcb_randr_provider_t provider,
       xcb_randr_provider_t sink_provider,
       xcb_timestamp_t config_timestamp);

note the return type: it's an xcb_void_cookie_t. remember that, it comes back later. ⭐

---

💖 REQUEST ARGUMENTS 💖

Four args, four lil besties, and the docs are... not forthcoming. We report faithfully, periodt:

• conn — the XCB connection to X11. this one actually got documented, slay. 🔥
• provider — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. yeah. that's the whole thing. the manpage said what it said. 🙈
• sink_provider — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. again. iconic in a cursed way.
• config_timestamp — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. three for three, the author really said "figure it out" 💀

okay but fr fr — those TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. lines are verbatim from the original, so don't come for me, I'm just the messenger. 🫶

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

There is a DESCRIPTION heading. Under it? Nothing. Empty. Void. Main character silence. The section exists purely as a vibe. ✨

---

👑 RETURN VALUE 👑

okay so this is the part that actually tells you something, so listen up:

It returns an xcb_void_cookie_t. That means errors (if any) have to be handled in the event loop — you don't get them handed to you right here, you gotta go catch them yourself later. 💅

If you'd rather handle errors directly with xcb_request_check instead, then use xcb_randr_set_provider_offload_sink_checked. See xcb-requests(3) for the details, bestie, that's where the whole story lives. 🧚

---

🔥 ERRORS 🔥

short and sweet and honestly a little slay:

This request does never generate any errors.

that's it. that's the section. no errors, no drama, no stress. we love a low-maintenance request. 💜

---

🎀 SEE ALSO 🎀

nothing listed. the SEE ALSO section is standing there in an empty room, looking cute. 🌸

💀 AUTHOR 💀

Generated from randr.xml. Contact xcb@lists.freedesktop.org for corrections and improvements. so if you spot something weird, that's your email, go be the change you wish to see in the manpage. 📧

---

and that's the whole page, bestie. short, mysterious, three TODOs deep. obsessed, honestly. 🦋

sign-off szn: this page comes to you from X Version 11, with libxcb 1.17.0 doing the heavy lifting — mwah, take care of her, and go read xcb-requests(3) if you want the full tea. 💖✨🎀
