💅 amdgpu_fence_driver_hw_fini — like, the whole kernel API manual moment ✨

Okay bestie, so we're in the Kernel API Manual today, and the star of the show is amdgpu_fence_driver_hw_fini(9). Buckle up 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

amdgpu_fence_driver_hw_fini — tear down the fence driver for all possible rings. That's it, that's the whole vibe 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void amdgpu_fence_driver_hw_fini (struct amdgpu_device *adev );

No return value, she just does her thing and leaves 🫶

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • adev — the amdgpu device pointer. Like, the whole graphics device, handed to you, no cap 💅

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

So the tea is: this function tears down the fence driver for all possible rings — and yes, that means all asics, every single one of them, no exceptions 🙈

It's the "hw fini" side of things, i.e. the point where the hardware is wrapping up and the fence driver gets taken down along with it. Iconic, honestly 👑

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

Kernel file: ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_fence.c — go read the source bestie, it's giving main character energy ⭐

And like, the whole fence fam, all of them, in the order they were listed (yes, all of them, I would never skip one 😭):

Real talk though: this page lives at ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu, which is where the source hangs out, and it's dated October 2026 — so yeah, future vibes only 🦋✨

Anyway, that's the page bestie, amdgpu_fence_driver_hw_fini(9), brought to you by the ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu directory, October 2026. Slay, goodbye, periodt 💅💖
