💅 dce_v10_0_page_flip — the Kernel API Manual glow-up 🎀

okay so bestie, welcome to the dce_v10_0_page_flip(9) page ✨ this is a kernel API manual entry and honestly? she's serving function realness. let's get into it 🦋

🌸 NAME 🌸

dce_v10_0_page_flip — the pageflip callback 💫 no cap, that's literally her whole job title.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void dce_v10_0_page_flip (struct amdgpu_device *adev , int crtc_id , u64
crtc_base , bool async );

that's it, that's the whole signature 🫶 it returns void (so she gives nothing back, queen behavior) — the exact call is copied above verbatim, do not @ me.

🧚 ARGUMENTS 🧚

so the function takes these four, and you gotta get them right:

  • adev — an amdgpu_device pointer 👑 like, the whole GPU device situation.
  • crtc_id — which crtc we're cleaning up the pageflip on 💅 (yes, this one's about cleanup, keep reading).
  • crtc_base — the new address of the crtc, and this is a GPU MC address 🌈 (memory controller address, iykyk, don't hand her a random pointer bestie).
  • async — a bool for asynchronous flip ⚡ so like, true means async, and you already knew that.

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

okay so the actual vibe: this is what triggers the real, actual pageflip — she does it by updating the primary surface base address 🖼️✨ that's the whole move. the way that a pageflip is literally just "bestie, here's your new base address, go display it" — iconic.

ngl, it's a lowkey simple description but it's the whole point: update the primary surface base address → pageflip happens. periodt 💅
