💅 amdgpu_fence_driver_set_error(9) ✨

okay so before we even get into it — bestie, you're reading page amdgpu_fence_driver_set_error(9) out of the Kernel API Manual, and yes the header up top truncates it all cunty as amdgpu_fenc...er_set_error(9) 💀 but it's the same page, don't panic. this one is short and sweet and honestly? a little iconic. let's go 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

amdgpu_fence_driver_set_error — set error code on fences, periodt 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void amdgpu_fence_driver_set_error (struct amdgpu_ring *ring , int error
);

that's it. that's the whole signature. no cap, she's tidy 🎀

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • ring — the ring which contains the fences 💫 iykyk, it's the ring that's holding all your fence besties
  • error — the error code to set 🌈 this is the vibe you're broadcasting to the fences

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

Set an error code to all the fences pending on the ring. 🔥

that's literally the whole thing, bestie — every fence still pending on that ring gets the error code slapped on it. one call, all of them, no fence left behind 💖 it's giving efficiency, it's giving main character energy, we love a one-liner function that does exactly what it says 🧚

ngl this is the kind of function that does one job and refuses to elaborate. respect 🫡
