πŸ’… drm_atomic_h...create_state(9)

okay bestie, so the manual page is literally titled drm_atomic_h...create_state(9) (yes the kernel truncated it, iconic of them), and it's all about one very specific little helper. buckle up πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

drm_atomic_helper_colorop_create_state β€” the function that allocates and initializes the colorop atomic state. two jobs, one baddie 🫢


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct drm_colorop_state * drm_atomic_helper_colorop_create_state
(struct drm_colorop *colorop );

πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • colorop β€” your drm colorop, that's it, that's the whole argument πŸ’–

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

so what it does is it initializes a pristine drm_colorop_state. like, fresh out the box, no cap. clean, untouched, main character energy ✨


πŸ”₯ RETURN πŸ”₯

it hands you back a pointer to the new colorop state πŸŽ€

but if things go sideways? you get an ERR_PTR on failure. so like, vibe check your return value before you use it, fr fr 😭
