dm_test_dmub...check_failed(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… dm_test_dmub...check_failed(9) β€” yes bestie, that's the whole name, we're in the Kernel API Manual πŸŽ€

Okay so real talk, this is a kernel API manpage, section 9, and the star of the show has a name that ate and left no crumbs: dm_test_dmub_hw_resume_init_check_failed. Say it three times fast, I dare you. 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

dm_test_dmub_hw_resume_init_check_failed β€” the test that checks resume doesn't absolutely lose it when an init check fails πŸ’€


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void dm_test_dmub_hw_resume_init_check_failed (struct kunit *test );

πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • test β€” the KUnit test context, i.e. the little vibe-check container the test framework hands you. Your whole world for the duration of the test, ngl.

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

So picture this: the DMUB service is not software-initialized (yes, that's the setup, it's on purpose, slay). Because of that, the init-state query fails. And then resume just… keeps going anyway, straight into dm_dmub_hw_init, which also fails. Two fails, one function call. 😭

Here's the part that matters: the call must warn and return without crashing. That's the entire assignment. Warn, return, no crash. Periodt. πŸ‘‘

That's the whole page, bestie β€” go forth and warn without crashing πŸ’œ

Huge kiss goodbye from the source line at ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/display/..., stamped October 2026, same dm_test_dmub...check_failed(9) energy from top to bottom. πŸ“β­
