drm_object_...ty_get_value(9)

🦋 drm_object_immutable_property_get_value(9) — Kernel API Manual ✨

okay so bestie, we're in the Kernel API Manual today and the star of the show is drm_object_immutable_property_get_value — yes the header truncates it to drm_object_...ty_get_value(9) because apparently even manpages have a character limit 🙈 but we know her full name and we respect her 💅

---

💖 NAME 💖

drm_object_immutable_property_get_value — retrieve the value of a property ✨

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

int drm_object_immutable_property_get_value (struct drm_mode_object *obj
, struct drm_property *property , uint64_t *val );

---

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• obj — the drm mode object you wanna get the property value from 🫶
• property — the property you're retrieving, like the one specific thing you're obsessed with rn
• val — the storage for the property value — that's where the answer lands, so don't forget to give her somewhere to live 💀

---

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

So what does she actually do? This function retrieves the software state of the given immutable property for the given mode object. That's it, that's the vibe check 💅

And the iconic part: this function can be called by both atomic and non-atomic drivers 🔥 no gatekeeping, no cap, everyone's invited.

---

🌈 RETURN 🌈

Zero on success, error code on failure. Slay when it's 0, cry when it's not 😭

ngl bestie, the real main character here is ./drivers/gpu/drm — that's the source, and this whole page is dated October 2026 ⭐ so yeah, she's from the future, periodt. drink water, go read a struct definition, ily 🧚💜
