✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void drm_hdmi_avi_infoframe_bars (struct hdmi_avi_infoframe *frame ,

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• frame — the HDMI AVI infoframe 🖼️ like, the actual thing getting her bar info filled in. that's the main character she's editing.
• conn_state — the connector state 🔌 the lil context object she reads from to know what's up with your connector.

both are required, bestie, she's not optional about either of them. periodt. 💜
