dcn314_dpp_pg_control(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… dcn314_dpp_pg_control(9) β€” from the Kernel API Manual, bestie πŸŽ€

okay so welcome to the glow-up of dcn314_dpp_pg_control(9), a real kernel API manual page, and yes we're gonna read it together, it's gonna be cute and it's gonna be thorough ✨


✨ NAME ✨

dcn314_dpp_pg_control β€” DPP power gate control, no cap πŸ¦‹


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void dcn314_dpp_pg_control (struct dce_hwseq *hws , unsigned int
dpp_inst , bool power_on );

like literally that's the whole signature, she's not complicated, she just has three arguments and a dream 🫢


πŸ’– ARGUMENTS πŸ’–

  • hws β€” a dce_hwseq reference. it's giving "here's the hardware sequencing context, bestie" πŸ‘‘
  • dpp_inst β€” the DPP instance reference. which DPP are we talking about?? this one. this specific one 🎯
  • power_on β€” true if we want to enable the power gate, false otherwise. binary queen, we stan πŸ’…

πŸ”₯ DESCRIPTION πŸ”₯

so what she does: enable or disable the power gate in the specific DPP instance. that's the whole vibe check βœ…

and here's the plot twist β€” if power gating is disabled, she will force disable the cursor in the DPP instance. not a suggestion, not a maybe, she just does it. cursor? gone. bye. 😭

fr fr remember: turning the power gate off takes the cursor down with it in that DPP instance. no cursor, no problem (well, no cursor, actually πŸ™ˆ)
