agp_bind_memory(9)

💅 agp_bind_memory(9) — from the Kernel API Manual, bestie

okay so bestie, pull up a chair 🎀 this one is short but it matters. We're in the Kernel API Manual today, section 9, and the star of the show is agp_bind_memory — the little function that takes your agp_memory struct and actually plants it into the GATT. Yes, GATT. Graphics Aperture Translation Table. She's iconic, she's specific, she's got opinions about your memory placement 👑

✨ NAME ✨

agp_bind_memory — literally just binds an agp_memory structure into the GATT. That's the whole job. Ate. 💅

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int agp_bind_memory (struct agp_memory *curr , off_t pg_start );

---

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• curr — the agp_memory pointer, i.e. the memory struct you're trying to get in there 💖
• pg_start — an offset into the graphics aperture translation table 🫶 like, where in the table you want this bad girl to land

---

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

So here's the vibe check. Two things can go wrong and she'll tell you immediately, no cap:

• it returns -EINVAL if the pointer is == NULL 💀 like bestie, you gave it nothing
• it returns -EBUSY if the area of the table you requested is already in use — someone's already squatting there, sorry 🙈

That's it. That's the description. No mystery, no hidden lore, just a girl doing her table bookkeeping. Periodt. ✨
