drm_for_each_connector_iter(9)

💅 drm_for_each_connector_iter 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the drm_for_each_connector_iter(9) page from the Kernel API Manual — yes it's a real kernel macro and yes it's lowkey iconic ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

drm_for_each_connector_iter — the connector_list iterator macro, periodt 🎀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

drm_for_each_connector_iter (connector , iter );

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• connector — a struct drm_connector pointer, and it's your cursor, your main character, the thing you're looping over 💫
• iter — a struct drm_connector_list_iter, which is the iterator doing the actual walking, no cap 🚶‍♀️

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so here's the tea, and you need to hear this one: connector is only valid within the list body. like, inside the loop? slay, it's yours. but the second you call drm_connector_list_iter_end and then try to use connector afterwards? bestie, that's a no 💀 it's gone, it's not your connector anymore.

so if you want to keep using connector after calling drm_connector_list_iter_end, you gotta grab your own reference first using drm_connector_get, fr fr 🫶 do that and you're golden ✨

not me warning you about dangling connectors… anyway, hold your own reference or hold your peace 💅
