DRM_TEGRA_SU...ECTOR_LAYOUT(9)

💅 DRM_TEGRA_SU...ECTOR_LAYOUT(9) 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the kernel API manual for DRM_TEGRA_SU...ECTOR_LAYOUT(9) — yes that's the truncated-looking name, no we're not fixing it, it's iconic as-is 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

DRM_TEGRA_SUBMIT_RELOC_SECTOR_LAYOUT — the flag that picks which sector layout swizzling gets used for in-memory buffers 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

DRM_TEGRA_SUBMIT_RELOC_SECTOR_LAYOUT

that's it. that's the whole thing. no args, no params, just vibes 💀

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so here's the tea 🍓 — when you use this flag, you're saying: set bit 39 of the patched-in address. literally just that bit. and what that does is switch the swizzling between Tegra sector layout and non-Tegra sector layout.

and like… when would you even need this? it's for systems that store surfaces in system memory in non-Tegra sector layout. so your memory's laid out one way, and this bit tells the hardware "hey bestie, flip the swizzle" 🔥 lowkey elegant ngl.
