💫 drm_atomic_h...tor_tv_check(9) 💫

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ and yes, the title up there is literally abbreviated with ... in the middle — that's not me being lazy, that's the actual page header, drm_atomic_h...tor_tv_check(9), and we're just gonna vibe with it 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

drm_atomic_helper_connector_tv_check — validate an analog TV connector state 💅

like. it checks ur TV connector state. that's the whole thing. iconic.

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

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

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• connector — a DRM Connector 🦋 (the connector in question, the main character of this function)
• state — the DRM State object ⭐ (the state we're checking, no cap)

---

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

So what this does is it checks the state object to see if the requested state is actually valid for an analog TV connector 👑 like it's the vibe check for ur TV connector state. valid? slay. not valid? we'll get to that in RETURN, bestie 😭

---

💜 RETURN 💜

• 0 — success, we ate 💅
• a negative error code — on error 🙈
