amdgpu_bo_get_tiling_flags(9)

💅 amdgpu_bo_get_tiling_flags — get tiling flags ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual (yes, that's the manual name, we're fancy now 🎀) — this is the page for amdgpu_bo_get_tiling_flags, and honestly? it's giving tiny-but-mighty. one job, does it, slays, leaves. 💖

---

✨ NAME ✨

amdgpu_bo_get_tiling_flags — get tiling flags. that's it. that's the whole vibe. 🦋

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void amdgpu_bo_get_tiling_flags (struct amdgpu_bo *bo , u64
*tiling_flags );

like, look at her. void return, so she's not handing you anything back directly — she writes into *tiling_flags and dips. 💅

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• bo — an amdgpu_bo buffer object 👑 the main character of this whole function ngl
• tiling_flags — the returned flags 🫶 this is where the answer goes, so please actually pass a real pointer, ok?

---

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so what does she do? she gets the buffer object's tiling flags. periodt. 🎯

and iykyk, this is the one that's used by the GEM ioctl or by the kernel driver to set the tiling flags on a buffer. so like — she's the read side of that story. the getter. the girl who knows what the tiling flags currently are. 💫

no cap, that's the entire description. short queen. 🌈

see how she's got a amdgpu_bo_set_tiling_flags(9) sibling? yeah. getter and setter. iconic duo behavior. 💀✨

luv u, go read your tiling flags responsibly 🎀💖🦋
