DRM_PANTHOR_OBJ_ARRAY(9)

💅 DRM_PANTHOR_OBJ_ARRAY 💅

okay so bestie, we're in the Kernel API Manual (page 9, section 9 — kernel devs really said "one section, one page, no notes") and today's main character is a macro. yes. a macro. and honestly? she ate.

✨ NAME ✨

DRM_PANTHOR_OBJ_ARRAY — the macro that initializes a drm_panthor_obj_array field. that's it, that's her whole job, and she does it flawlessly 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

DRM_PANTHOR_OBJ_ARRAY (cnt , ptr );

like, literally just call her with those two things and you're done. periodt.

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

• cnt — how many elements are chillin' in the array. the headcount. the vibe check of quantity 🌸
• ptr — the pointer to the array you're handing over to the kernel 🫶

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so the way this works: this is a macro that initializes a drm_panthor_obj_array, and it builds it off the object size as known by userspace 💖 that's the whole thing. the object size as known by userspace. not the kernel's idea of it — userspace's. very "know your own size, bestie" energy. ngl it's giving self-aware icon behavior 👑

it's a macro, not a function, so no runtime drama, no return value, no exit statuses, no environment variables, no signals. just preprocessing slay ✨
