okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for DEFINE_DRM_ACCEL_FOPS β€” that's section 9, iykyk. ✨ This one is literally about a macro that generates file operations for accelerators drivers, and it's giving very "small but important kernel glue" energy. 🫢


πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

DEFINE_DRM_ACCEL_FOPS β€” macro to generate file operations for accelerators drivers. periodt. πŸ’…


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

okay so the whole vibe is:

DEFINE_DRM_ACCEL_FOPS (name );

πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • name β€” the name for the generated structure. that's the argument. that's it. πŸ’…

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

This macro autogenerates a suitable struct file_operations for accelerators based drivers, which can be assigned to drm_driver.fops. obsessed. πŸ”₯

And bestie, note that this structure cannot be shared between drivers, because it contains a reference to the current module using THIS_MODULE. like, it's not a communal snack β€” it's module-specific. 🫢

🚨 heads up, bestie: the declaration is already marked as static β€” if you need a non-static version of this, you're probably doing it wrong and will break the THIS_MODULE reference by accident. no cap. πŸ’€
