🌸 NAME 🌸

amdgpu_device_supports_boco — Is the device a dGPU with ACPI power resources? 👑

like, that's the whole personality. it wants to know if your card is a dGPU that's got ACPI power resources going on. no cap.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

bool amdgpu_device_supports_boco (struct amdgpu_device *adev );

that's it. that's the whole call. one argument, gives you back a bool. iconic honestly 💅

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

  • adev — amdgpu device pointer 🫶. the GPU in question, the main character of this whole function.

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

so the way that this works: it returns true if the device is a dGPU with ACPI power control 💖 and otherwise it returns false. that's it, that's the tea ☕

ngl, it's giving "tiny function, very specific job" and honestly? we stan a focused icon 🙈
