drm_dp_read_sink_count_cap(9)

🎀 NAME 🎀

okay bestie, welcome to the drm_dp_read_sink_count_cap(9) page from the Kernel API Manual — manual-name check folded in right at the top, slay ✨

drm_dp_read_sink_count_cap — Check whether a given connector has a valid sink count.

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bool drm_dp_read_sink_count_cap (struct drm_connector *connector , const
u8 dpcd[DP_RECEIVER_CAP_SIZE] , const struct drm_dp_desc *desc );

---

💅 ARGUMENTS 💅

• connector — The DRM connector to check.
• dpcd — A cached copy of the connector's DPCD RX capabilities.
• desc — A cached copy of the connector's DP descriptor.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

This section is short and sweet, no cap: See also: drm_dp_read_sink_count.

---

🌟 RETURN 🌟

True if the (e)DP connector has a valid sink count that should be probed, false otherwise.

cute little footer sign-off, because bestie deserves closure: the source/version spot is ./drivers/gpu/drm/display, the date is October 2026, and the page is drm_dp_read_sink_count_cap(9) 💖💅✨
