dm_test_fill..._table_empty(9)
π dm_test_fill..._table_empty(9) β like, the whole glow-up
okay bestie, so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual (yes, the Kernel API Manual, we're in the big leagues now π) and it's about one very specific little KUnit test. Short page, but we're gonna make it cute anyway. Let's gooo β¨
πΈ NAME πΈ
dm_test_fill_mst_payload_table_empty β the test that checks what happens when you fill the payload table and, plot twist, it's empty. it's giving "nothing to see here" but make it a whole unit test π
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
void dm_test_fill_mst_payload_table_empty (struct kunit *test );
literally one function, one argument, void return. no cap, that's the whole vibe. π«Ά
π ARGUMENTS π
testβ the KUnit test context π this is the little buddy the test framework hands you so the test can actually, y'know, exist. iconic.
π SEE ALSO π
okay so first thing's first, there's a Kernel file for this one:
./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/display/amdgpu_dm/tests/amdgpu_dm_helpers_test.c
and then. and then. the referrals. there are so many referrals. like the whole friend group showed up to the party π we're talking about these icons, in exactly this order:

like. one hundred and forty-two besties. i counted. that's the whole group chat and honestly? obsessed π₯ notice our girl dm_test_fill_mst_payload_table_enable(9) and dm_test_fill_mst_payload_table_disable(9) are right there in the mix β the empty case is literally the third sibling of that trio, iykyk π
π the cute little sign-off π
and that's the page!! source path is ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/display/... (yes they really abbreviated it like that, slay for them), and it's dated October 2026 β so like, future vibes. anyway ily, go read your other manpages, bestie ππ¦β¨
