πŸ’… dpu_crtc_destroy_state πŸ’…

okay so bestie, welcome to the dpu_crtc_destroy_state(9) page β€” it's living in the Kernel API Manual, and it's genuinely one of the shorter little icon entries, so let's get into it 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

dpu_crtc_destroy_state β€” the state destroy hook ✨ like, that's literally her whole job. she destroys state. she's the cleanup crew. no cap.


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void dpu_crtc_destroy_state (struct drm_crtc *crtc , struct
       drm_crtc_state *state );

so it returns void (nothing comes back, she's not giving you a return value, she's just DOING the thing πŸ’…) and it takes two arguments β€” keep scrolling, they're both right below πŸ‘‡


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • crtc β€” a struct drm_crtc *, i.e. the drm CRTC. that's your display controller bestie, the main character of this whole situation πŸ‘‘
  • state β€” a struct drm_crtc_state *, the CRTC state object to release πŸ¦‹ this is the one getting destroyed and let go. free her. release her. it's giving closure 😭

πŸ¦‹ SEE ALSO πŸ¦‹

if you wanna go deeper (and i KNOW you do, nosy bestie πŸ™ˆ), it's all chillin' in the kernel file:

./drivers/gpu/drm/msm/disp/dpu1/dpu_crtc.c

and here's the whole friend group, no one left out, periodt πŸŽ€

lowkey a whole squad. slay. πŸ”₯


ngl there's not a ton of drama on this page β€” no exit statuses, no signals, no scary warnings, no bug notes, no environment variables. just a clean little destroy hook doing her thing. and honestly? iconic βœ¨πŸ’–

and that's the whole page, bestie!! it comes from ./drivers/gpu/drm/msm/disp/dpu1 and the version/date stamp on it is October 2026 β€” so go forth, destroy state responsibly, and stan dpu_crtc_destroy_state(9) πŸŒˆπŸ’œπŸŽ€
