📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 dce_v6_0_average_bandwidth_vs_available_bandwidth(9) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — yes we're reading kernel docs together, this is our bonding time now 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

dce_v6_0_average_bandwidth_vs_available_bandwidth — checks the average bandwidth against the available bandwidth, that's literally the whole job, she's very straightforward and honestly? iconic for that 💖

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

bool dce_v6_0_average_bandwidth_vs_available_bandwidth (struct
dce6_wm_params *wm );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • wm — the watermark calculation data. that's it, that's the whole bag, she takes one (1) pointer and she's ready 💅

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so what she does is: she checks whether the display's average bandwidth actually fits inside the display's available bandwidth (CIK). no cap, that's the vibe check 🧚

she's used for the display watermark bandwidth calculations — so anytime the kernel is doing that whole watermark math thing, our girl here is the one going "does this fit or nah" 🔥

return value is a bool:

  • returns true if the display fits 👑
  • returns false if it does not fit 😭

literally that simple, she said what she said 💀

the kernel file lives right here:

and here's the whole friend group, the entire squad, no one left out 🫶:

💜 reminder bestie: true means it fits, false means it doesn't — don't mix them up in your head, that's the whole manpage, you ate that fr fr

and that's a wrap on the dce_v6_0_average_bandwidth_vs_available_bandwidth era 🌈 she shipped from ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu, dated October 2026, and she's out here living her best life in the Kernel API Manual. periodt. 💅🎀
