💅 drm_plane_cr...ine_property(9) — bestie edition 💅

okay so this is from the Kernel API Manual and it's lowkey one of those tiny functions that just does one thing and does it cute. let's get into it 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

drm_plane_create_color_pipeline_property — creates a brand new color pipeline property, no cap 💫

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int drm_plane_create_color_pipeline_property (struct drm_plane *plane ,
const struct drm_prop_enum_list *pipelines , int num_pipelines );

like, that's the whole signature. she's not complicated and honestly? love that for her 🫶

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• plane — the drm plane in question, the main character of this whole operation 👑
• pipelines — the list of pipelines, aka the lineup of options ✨
• num_pipelines — how many pipelines are in that list, like a headcount bestie 💅

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so basically this function creates the COLOR_PIPELINE plane property, and it's there to specify the color pipelines on the plane. that's it. that's the vibe. it's giving "one job, done well" 🧚

---

⭐ RETURN ⭐

zero for success, or -errno if things went sideways 😭 (standard kernel behavior, iykyk)

sign-off szn: this one lives in ./drivers/gpu/drm and the page is dated October 2026 — so it's basically a time traveler 💀🕰️ 💜
