📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💖 dce_v8_0_hpd_sense 💖

okay so bestie, we're in the Kernel API Manual today and this page is literally about one (1) tiny little callback. but do not let the size fool you — she's doing hotplug detect duty and she's slaying. let's get into it ✨

🎀 NAME 🎀

dce_v8_0_hpd_sense — the hpd sense callback. that's it. that's the whole vibe. 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

bool dce_v8_0_hpd_sense (struct amdgpu_device *adev , enum amdgpu_hpd_id
       hpd );

she takes two things and hands you back a bool. iconic behavior tbh 💅

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • adev — amdgpu_device pointer. you know her, you love her 💜
  • hpd — the hpd (hotplug detect) pin. yes, that hpd. the hotplug detect one 🔌✨

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

so what does she actually do? she checks if a digital monitor is connected — evergreen+ era, no cap. 🌈

  • returns true if connected 🟢
  • returns false if not connected 💀

that's the whole function. short, sweet, does exactly what it says on the tin. main character energy fr fr 👑

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

first up, the kernel file she lives in: ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/dce_v8_0.c 📁

and then the whole friend group, in order, because we don't skip anyone in this house:

bestie that's a lot of bandwidth functions and honestly? respect. go read them. iykyk 🧚
