amdgpu_cs_get_fence(9)

💅 amdgpu_cs_get_fence — the Kernel API Manual ✨

Okay bestie, so this page is from the Kernel API Manual — it's amdgpu_cs_get_fence(9), a little helper function living in the AMD GPU driver, and honestly it's giving "small but crucial" energy. 🎀 Let's get into it.

---

✨ NAME ✨

amdgpu_cs_get_fence — the helper that grabs a fence for you out of a drm_amdgpu_fence. No cap, that's literally its whole job. 🦋

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct dma_fence * amdgpu_cs_get_fence (struct amdgpu_device *adev ,
struct drm_file *filp , struct drm_amdgpu_fence *user );

Write it exactly like that, bestie — those commas and spaces are staying where they are. 💅

---

👑 ARGUMENTS 👑

Three arguments, three vibes, let's go:

• adev — the amdgpu device. The main character, the actual hardware situation. 🔥
• filp — the file private. Your file's own private little data, iykyk. 🙈
• user — the drm_amdgpu_fence copied from user space. Yes, copied from user space — that's the whole point. ⭐

---

🦋 SEE ALSO 🦋

All the related reading, so you can go be nosy in the source too:

• Kernel file ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_cs.c — the actual home of this function, go peek 👀
• amdgpu_cs_wait_ioctl(9)
• amdgpu_cs_wait_all_fences(9)
• amdgpu_cs_wait_any_fence(9)
• amdgpu_cs_wait_fences_ioctl(9)
• amdgpu_cs_find_mapping(9)

💖 Friendly little note: this page is under ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu — that's the directory it belongs to, just so you know where to find it. 🫶

And that's the whole page, bestie — short, sweet, and absolutely iconic for what it is. 🌈 This one's from the Kernel API Manual, path ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu, dated October 2026, and it's filed under amdgpu_cs_get_fence(9). Slay, go read amdgpu_cs.c now. 💜🎀🌸
