💅 amdgpu_vm_get_task_info_vm(9) — bestie edition

okay so this is a page straight outta the Kernel API Manual, and it's about one tiny little function that fishes task info out of a VM. short page, but it's important, so let's go 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

amdgpu_vm_get_task_info_vm — literally extracts task info for a vm. that's the whole job. no cap.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct amdgpu_task_info * amdgpu_vm_get_task_info_vm (struct amdgpu_vm
*vm );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • vm — the VM to get info from. like, this one, the one you're pointing at. hand it over and it'll spill the tea 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so here's the vibe: it returns the reference counted task_info structure. read that again — reference counted, bestie, which means you do not just take it and walk away like it's yours.

you gotta reference it down with amdgpu_vm_put_task_info. that's the deal. take the info, but clean up after yourself or it's giving leak energy 😭
