π DRM_IVPU_CAP_METRIC_STREAMER(9) π
okay so bestie, we're in the Kernel API Manual today and this page is literally the glow-up of a single capability constant. she's short, she's sweet, she's giving "one-line queen." let's get into it π
β¨ NAME β¨
DRM_IVPU_CAP_METRIC_STREAMER β and that's it, that's the whole name section. no description attached, she left it blank bestie, iconic honestly π«Ά
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
DRM_IVPU_CAP_METRIC_STREAMER
just the constant itself, standing there looking pretty β¨ no arguments, no parameters, nothing to pass in. periodt.
π DESCRIPTION π
so what is it? it's metric streamer support. that's the whole vibe.
basically it gives you sampling of various hardware performance metrics β think things like DMA bandwidth and cache miss/hits. so you can literally watch your hardware's numbers go by like a little livestream of β¨dataβ¨.
and what's it for? profiling. that's the use case, that's the entire plot. ngl it's a short page but she ate π

like she has a whole squad, we love a connected page π
π little sign-off moment: this page lives under ./include/uapi/drm, the manual is the Kernel API Manual, and it's dated October 2026. bestie really said "future vibes only" and honestly? we respect it. mwah ππΈ
