amdgpu_vce_suspend(9)
π amdgpu_vce_suspend β the Kernel API Manual, bestie edition β¨
okay so real quick, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual β it's the amdgpu_vce_suspend(9) entry, and honestly? It's giving "one tiny function, one very important job." π
πΈ NAME
amdgpu_vce_suspend β unpin VCE fw memory
Like, that's it. That's the whole vibe. It unpins the VCE firmware memory. Slay. π
β¨ SYNOPSIS
int amdgpu_vce_suspend (struct amdgpu_device *adev );
Bestie, look at that signature. It returns an int (classic), and it takes exactly one thing. Iconic minimalism. π
π¦ ARGUMENTS
adevβ anamdgpu_devicepointer. That's the whole argument list, no cap. One pointer, zero notes, main character energy. π
π«Ά SEE ALSO
okay so this is the part where the page just absolutely goes off with the cross-references, and I'm obsessed. First, the source file:
- Kernel file
./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_vce.c
and then, literally, the whole VCE friend group π§:
amdgpu_vce_firmware_name(9),amdgpu_vce_early_init(9),amdgpu_vce_sw_init(9),amdgpu_vce_sw_fini(9),amdgpu_vce_entity_init(9),amdgpu_vce_resume(9),amdgpu_vce_idle_work_handler(9),amdgpu_vce_ring_begin_use(9),amdgpu_vce_ring_end_use(9),amdgpu_vce_free_handles(9),amdgpu_vce_get_create_msg(9),amdgpu_vce_get_destroy_msg(9),amdgpu_vce_validate_bo(9),amdgpu_vce_cs_reloc(9),amdgpu_vce_validate_handle(9),amdgpu_vce_ring_parse_cs(9),amdgpu_vce_ring_parse_cs_vm(9),amdgpu_vce_ring_emit_ib(9),amdgpu_vce_ring_emit_fence(9),amdgpu_vce_ring_test_ring(9),amdgpu_vce_ring_test_ib(9)
like yes, that's twenty-one functions, I counted, and you can't skip a single one of them, they're all iykyk. π
header note, bestie: this page belongs to the kernel gang and lives in ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu π
and that's the whole page!! short, sweet, and highkey perfect. π
sign-off vibes π: this was the amdgpu_vce_suspend(9) page from the Kernel API Manual, sourced from ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu, dated October 2026. bye bestie, go unpin that firmware memory π
