💅 cik_gfx_is_lockup — the Kernel API Manual glow-up 🎀

okay so bestie, welcome to cik_gfx_is_lockup(9) from the Kernel API Manual — yes that Kernel API Manual, the one we all live in. this is the little function that answers the question everybody asks at 3am: is the 3D engine okay or is it straight-up frozen 💀

✨ NAME ✨

cik_gfx_is_lockup — check if the 3D engine is locked up 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

bool cik_gfx_is_lockup (struct radeon_device *rdev , struct radeon_ring
*ring );

like, that's the whole vibe check right there. two pointers in, one bool out 👑

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • rdev — a radeon_device pointer. iconic. this is your whole device situation 💖
  • ring — a radeon_ring structure holding ring information. she's got the ring deets, no cap ✨

💫 DESCRIPTION 💫

so what does she actually do? she checks if the 3D engine is locked up — specifically for CIK 🌈

returns true if the engine is locked, and false if it's not. that's it. that's the whole personality 🎀 literally a yes-or-no girlie and honestly? respect.

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

bestie, buckle up, because this list is LONG and she ate every single one of them 💅 no skips, no cuts, we're doing all of them:

like I said. ALL of them. iykyk 💜

lowkey a reminder bestie: the boolean is doing a lot of heavy lifting here — true means locked, false means not locked. don't flip it, that would be not the move 🙈
