πŸ’… amdgpu_bo_kunmap(9) β€” a Kernel API Manual moment

okay so bestie, gather round, because today we're reading the Kernel API Manual page for amdgpu_bo_kunmap, and honestly? it's a short one but it matters πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

amdgpu_bo_kunmap β€” unmap an &amdgpu_bo buffer object πŸ¦‹

like, the un-mapping one. the "we're so done here" one. the reverse of the kmap slay.


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void amdgpu_bo_kunmap (struct amdgpu_bo *bo );

that's it. that's the whole signature. one function, one pointer, zero drama (allegedly) πŸ’…


🫢 ARGUMENTS 🫢

  • bo β€” the amdgpu_bo buffer object that's getting unmapped. this is the one. the buffer object in question. it gets unmapped, and that's the whole gig ✨

πŸ”₯ DESCRIPTION πŸ”₯

so what does it do? it unmaps a kernel map β€” the exact one that was set up earlier by amdgpu_bo_kmap. that's the whole story, no cap. kmap puts the map there, kunmap takes the map away. it's giving cleanup era. it's giving "we brought a snack to the party and now we're taking our tupperware home" πŸ“

no extra behaviour hinted at, no secret bonus features, just the unmap. periodt πŸ’œ


πŸ‘‘ SEE ALSO πŸ‘‘

the source file for all this lives at Kernel file ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_object.c β€” go say hi to it, it's iconic 🌈

bestie that's a lot of friends and every single one of them is invited. do not skip a single (9), i'm watching πŸ‘€
