drm_atomic_..._plane_reset(9)

💅 NAME 💅

okay so this is the Kernel API Manual page for drm_atomic_helper_plane_reset, and bestie… it is literally the default &drm_plane_funcs.reset hook for planes. no cap, that's the whole name vibe. 👑

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

it's giving:

void drm_atomic_helper_plane_reset (struct drm_plane *plane );

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• plane — the drm plane. That's the argument, bestie, the one this whole reset moment is for. periodt.

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so here's the tea ☕: this resets the atomic state for plane by freeing the state pointer — which might be NULL, e.g. at driver load time — and allocating a new empty state object. Fresh start, blank slate, main character reset energy. ✨

yes, the state pointer might be NULL, e.g. at driver load time. the manual said what it said. 💅

mwah 💋 that's the page! source/version ./drivers/gpu/drm, date October 2026, and the page itself is drm_atomic_..._plane_reset(9). go off, bestie 🫶
