💅 dce8_average_bandwidth_vs_dram_bandwidth_for_display(9) — Kernel API Manual energy ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the kernel API manual for dce8_average_bandwidth_vs_dram_bandwidth_for_display(9) 🫶 — yes that name is a whole paragraph, no we are not changing it, it's iconic and we respect it 💖

🌸 NAME 🌸

dce8_average_bandwidth_vs_dram_bandwidth_for_display — the lil check-in that asks "does the average bandwidth fit?" and also peeks at the available dram bandwidth 👀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bool dce8_average_bandwidth_vs_dram_bandwidth_for_display (struct
dce8_wm_params *wm );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • wm — the watermark calculation data 🫧 like, all the numbers it needs to do the math, gathered up in one struct

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So here's the vibe ✨ — this function checks if the display average bandwidth fits inside the display dram bandwidth (CIK). That's it, that's the whole assignment 💅

It's used for display watermark bandwidth calculations, bestie. Watermarks are literally the main character here 👑

And the return value? Very demure, very simple:

  • returns true if the display fits 🟢 slay
  • returns false if it does not 🔴 not slay, but like, informative
