💅 drm_dp_pcon_pps_override_buf — Kernel API Manual ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — yes we're doing kernel docs now, and honestly? iconic of you. this page is all about drm_dp_pcon_pps_override_buf, and it's a short one, so sip your lil drink and let's go 🍓

🌸 NAME 🌸

drm_dp_pcon_pps_override_buf — configure the PPS encoder override buffer for your HDMI sink. that's the whole vibe. 🎀

💫 SYNOPSIS 💫

int drm_dp_pcon_pps_override_buf (struct drm_dp_aux *aux , u8 pps_buf[128] );

look at her. two args, one int, zero drama. slay 💅

👑 ARGUMENTS 👑

  • aux — the DisplayPort AUX channel. that's the lil side-channel everyone's talking through 🦋
  • pps_buf — the 128 bytes that the PCON is gonna write into the PPS buffer for the HDMI sink. exactly 128. no cap, not 127, not 129. one hundred and twenty-eight 🙈

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

so what does she actually do? she sets up the PPS encoder override buffer for the HDMI sink, that's the whole thing — and then she tells you how it went:

  • returns 0 on success 🎉
  • otherwise she returns a negative error code 😭 (not a vibe, but at least she's honest)

no hidden lore, no extra params, that's it. main character energy with a tiny screenplay 💜

quick vibe check: this page keeps the description exactly as honest as the original — success is 0, failure is a negative error code, and there's literally nothing more claimed. don't be out here inventing behaviour, bestie, iykyk 🔥

🧚 SEE ALSO 🧚

the whole friend group, fr fr — and yes, we're listing every single one 😤

and that's the whole page, bestie 🫶 go configure that override buffer, you're literally built for this.

💖 this lil group chat happened because of the source file ./drivers/gpu/drm/display, dated October 2026 — big kisses to whoever maintains it 💖
