amdgpu_vce_i...work_handler(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… amdgpu_vce_idle_work_handler(9) β€” from the Kernel API Manual, bestie

okay so real talk, this whole page lives in the Kernel API Manual, and the function it's hyping up is amdgpu_vce_idle_work_handler β€” like the full grown-up name on the header is amdgpu_vce_i...work_handler(9) but we all know her πŸ’–


✨ NAME ✨

amdgpu_vce_idle_work_handler β€” the girl whose whole job is powering off VCE πŸ”ŒπŸ’€


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

void amdgpu_vce_idle_work_handler (struct work_struct *work );

that's it. that's the whole signature. no cap, she takes exactly one thing and returns absolutely nothing (void, as in "i give you no information back, i just do things" β€” main character energy honestly) πŸ‘‘


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • work β€” a pointer to the work structure 🫢 literally just a pointer to a struct work_struct, that's the whole vibe check

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so when VCE isn't being used any more β€” like nobody's touching it, it's just sitting there existing β€” this handler's entire personality is powering it off. that's the tea 🍡✨

basically: not in use β†’ powered down. iconic, lowkey efficient, no notes πŸ’…

the kernel file herself lives right here, go say hi: ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_vce.c πŸ“

and her whole friend group, fr fr β€” all of these are (9) sections and they're all part of the same VCE cinematic universe 🌈:

whole squad ate, honestly πŸ“πŸ§š


ngl bestie, this page came straight out of ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu and she's dated October 2026 β€” so go off, future girlies πŸ’œπŸ¦‹βœ¨
