drm_atomic_h...e_infoframes(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… NAME πŸ’…

Okay bestie, gather round, because this is the drm_atomic_helper_connector_hdmi_update_infoframes</p> page β€” the one and only, and it's literally about Update the Infoframes. That's it, that's the whole vibe. ✨

This page lives in the Kernel API Manual, so yeah, it's giving very much kernel-docs main character energy. πŸŽ€


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int drm_atomic_helper_connector_hdmi_update_infoframes (struct drm_connector *connector , struct drm_atomic_commit *state );

That's the whole signature, no cap. 🫢


✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

  • connector β€” a pointer to the HDMI connector, like, the actual connector bestie, the thing we're updating πŸ’–
  • state β€” the HDMI connector state we're gonna generate the infoframe from 🌈

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

So here's the tea, okay? This function is meant for HDMI connector drivers to write their infoframes. That's the job. That's what it does. Slay. πŸ’…

It will typically be used in a drm_connector_helper_funcs.atomic_enable implementation β€” so that's the moment where you'd normally slide it in. iconic placement honestly πŸŽ€


⭐ RETURN ⭐

  • Zero on success πŸŽ‰
  • error code on failure 😭

That's it, that's the whole return situation β€” zero means we ate, anything else means we did not eat.

Okay that's the whole page bestie, we're done here πŸ’œ β€” this one came out of ./drivers/gpu/drm/display, dated October 2026, and honestly the truncated title drm_atomic_h...e_infoframes(9) is doing the most with the ellipsis and we respect it πŸ“βœ¨
