drm_encoder_crtc_ok(9)

🌸 NAME 🌸

bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for drm_encoder_crtc_ok(9) — and the whole question is literally: can a given crtc drive a given encoder? 👀 like, that's it, that's the vibe check.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bool drm_encoder_crtc_ok (struct drm_encoder *encoder , struct drm_crtc *crtc );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• encoder — the encoder to test, bestie. that's the one we're checking 👑
• crtc — the crtc to test, periodt. the other half of the situation 💅

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

okay so this function returns false if encoder can't be driven by crtc, and true otherwise. no cap, that's the whole plot 🫶

it's giving "simple little compatibility check" and honestly? iconic. ✨
