DRM_SCHED_F...DEADLINE_BIT(9)

💅 DRM_SCHED_F...DEADLINE_BIT(9) 💅

okay so bestie, this page is from the Kernel API Manual and it's lowkey short but it's important, so pay attention 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

DRM_SCHED_FENCE_FLAG_HAS_DEADLINE_BIT — a fence deadline hint has been set 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

DRM_SCHED_FENCE_FLAG_HAS_DEADLINE_BIT

that's it. that's the whole synopsis. she's literally just a flag, no cap 💀

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so here's the tea ☕ — the reason this flag exists at all is that a deadline hint can get set before the backing hw fence is even created. like, the hint shows up early, before the fence has made its grand entrance 🌟

so because of that, we need to keep track of whether a deadline has already been set. that's it. that's the whole job. she's a "yes, we already did that" receipt and she takes it very seriously 💅✨
