✨ atiixp_bmdma_stop(9) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual πŸ’… this little cutie lives in the atiixp corner of the kernel and honestly? she's short, she's sweet, she's iconic. let's get into it πŸŽ€


🌸 NAME 🌸

atiixp_bmdma_stop β€” the DMA stop callback, no cap πŸ’–

πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

void atiixp_bmdma_stop (struct ata_queued_cmd *qc );

like yes, that's the whole signature, she's not doing extra credit 😭

πŸ“ ARGUMENTS πŸ“

  • qc β€” the command that's currently in progress, aka the main character of this whole situation πŸ‘‘

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

so the DMA has completed, bestie β€” it's done, it ate, it's leaving the group chat ✨ now we gotta clear the UDMA flag, because the next operations are gonna be PIO ones, not UDMA data transfer. it's giving "different era, different vibe" πŸ’« periodt.

πŸ’€ NOTE πŸ’€

the host lock held by the libata layer is literally our bodyguard 🫢 it protects us from two channels both trying to set DMA bits at the same time β€” like two besties reaching for the same iced coffee at once πŸ™ˆ not on her watch, fr fr.
