πŸ’… drm_connecto...ible_encoder(9) β€” a Kernel API Manual moment

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ this one's a lil function called drm_connector_has_possible_encoder, and honestly? it's giving "are these two even associated" energy. let's get into it 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

drm_connector_has_possible_encoder β€” check if the connector and encoder are associated with each other πŸ’–

like, are they besties or not. that's the whole vibe check.


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

bool drm_connector_has_possible_encoder (struct drm_connector *connector
, struct drm_encoder *encoder );

literally just hand it a connector and an encoder and it tells you if they're linked πŸ’« (and yes, it returns a bool, we love a clean yes/no)


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • connector β€” the connector πŸ‘‘ she's the one we're checking on
  • encoder β€” the encoder 🌈 the one we're checking against, iykyk

⭐ RETURN ⭐

<cute>True</cute> if encoder is one of the possible encoders for connector πŸ’€βœ¨

that's it. that's the answer. no cap.

okay so this list is long β€” like, unreasonably long β€” but every single one of these is iconic in her own right, so here we go, no skipping, periodt:

bestie i counted and yes, standard connector properties(9) really does show up twice β€” that's not me being chaotic, that's just how the page is πŸ’€ keep both, she's earning her spot.

and that's the page!! πŸ§šβ€β™€οΈ straight outta the ./drivers/gpu/drm source, dated October 2026 β€” mwah, slay, go check your encoders πŸ’…πŸŽ€πŸ’œ
