drm_mode_create_tile_group(9)

💅 drm_mode_create_tile_group(9) 💅

straight out of the Kernel API Manual, bestie — yes, the actual manual, and this page is lowkey iconic

✨ NAME ✨

drm_mode_create_tile_group — create a tile group from a displayid description. 💖

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct drm_tile_group * drm_mode_create_tile_group (struct drm_device
*dev , const char topology_id[9] );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• dev — DRM device. 🫶
• topology_id — 9-byte unique ID per monitor.

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

Okay so the whole assignment is: create a tile group for the unique monitor, and get a unique identifier for the tile group. That's it, that's the vibe — small function, main character energy. 💅

🔥 RETURN 🔥

New tile group or NULL. If it works out, you get the new tile group; if not, NULL. No cap. ✨
