drm_gpuva_remove(9)

💅 drm_gpuva_remove(9) — Kernel API Manual

okay so bestie, this is the manpage for drm_gpuva_remove, straight out of the Kernel API Manual. it's short, it's sweet, and it does exactly one (1) thing. let's get into it ✨

---

🌸 NAME

drm_gpuva_remove — remove a &drm_gpuva

that's it. that's the whole job. iconic honestly 🎀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS

void drm_gpuva_remove(struct drm_gpuva *va);

no return value, no drama. it's giving "void and unbothered" 💅

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS

• va — the drm_gpuva to remove. that's the one, the main character, the thing getting yeeted out of the tree 🫶

---

🔥 DESCRIPTION

so what does it actually do? this removes the given va from the underlying tree. tree said "you're not on the list anymore" 😭

and here's the part where you go "wait, is this safe mid-loop?" — yes babe, it is 💖 it's safe to use this function with the safe versions of iterating the GPU VA space, like drm_gpuvm_for_each_va_safe and drm_gpuvm_for_each_va_range_safe. so you can remove stuff while you're still walking the tree. no cap, that's the whole reason those safe iterators exist 🙈

ngl, notice it says safe versions — that's the vibe check here. use the safe iterators and you're golden ⭐
