amdgpu_vce_ring_emit_fence(9)

🌸 NAME 🌸

okay so this is the amdgpu_vce_ring_emit_fence(9) page from the Kernel API Manual, bestie — and it's literally about how to add a fence command to the ring. That's the whole vibe, and it's iconic ✨

amdgpu_vce_ring_emit_fence — add a fence command to the ring 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

here's the exact signature, character for character, no edits, no cap:

void amdgpu_vce_ring_emit_fence (struct amdgpu_ring *ring , u64 addr ,
       u64 seq , unsigned int flags );

it's giving void, so no return value to catch — periodt 💅
