okay so this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual β yes, that Kernel API Manual, the big one π β and it's about one tiny lil function that does exactly one tiny lil thing. no cap, it's a one-job icon.
π NAME π
drm_dp_dsc_slice_count_to_mask β literally just converting a slice count into a slice count mask. that's it. that's the whole personality. π
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
u32 drm_dp_dsc_slice_count_to_mask (int slice_count );
she takes an int, she gives you back a u32. glow-up behavior honestly β¨
πΈ ARGUMENTS πΈ
slice_countβ the slice count. yes queen, that's the entire description, the kernel docs are not exactly verbose girlies π
π DESCRIPTION π
so the vibe is: you hand her a slice_count, and she converts it into a slice count mask. that's the transformation. pumpkin β carriage, slice count β slice count mask. π§
Returns the slice count mask. that's your output, bestie, take it and go π«Ά
π₯ SEE ALSO π₯
bestie. sit down. hydrate first. π this list is long long, and i'm not cutting a single one because every single reference is load-bearing. here we go:
