dm_helpers_parse_edid_caps(9)

💅 dm_helpers_parse_edid_caps — like, the whole vibe ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual, section 9 🎀 — this is the glow-up of dm_helpers_parse_edid_caps(9), and yes we're gonna read the whole thing together, no skimming, no cap 💖

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

dm_helpers_parse_edid_caps — Parse edid caps 🦋

that's it. that's the name. it parses EDID caps. she said what she said 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

enum dc_edid_status dm_helpers_parse_edid_caps (struct dc_link *link ,
const struct dc_edid *edid , struct dc_edid_caps *edid_caps );

literally the whole signature, copy-pasted with love 🫶 note that the return type up top is enum dc_edid_status — we'll circle back to that in RETURN, and it's giving character development 😭

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

three besties walk into a function:

• link — the current detected link 👑 like, which display connection we're even talking about rn
• edid — [in] pointer to edid 🌈 the raw EDID data, handed over for reading
• edid_caps — [in] pointer to edid caps 💜 where the parsed caps go

both edid and edid_caps are marked [in], bestie, and we are not editing the original text to make it make more sense — we report, we don't rewrite 🙈

---

⭐ RETURN ⭐

void

yep. that's what the page says 💀 the synopsis says enum dc_edid_status and the RETURN section says void, and honestly? not me fixing that. I'm just the messenger, and the message is void ✨

slay, you read the entire manpage, main character energy fr fr 🎀✨💅
