💅 drm_property_type_is(9) ✨

okay so real talk, bestie — this one lives in the Kernel API Manual and it's genuinely a tiny little icon, so let's get into it 🫶

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

drm_property_type_is — check the type of a property 👀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bool drm_property_type_is (struct drm_property *property , uint32_t type );

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• property — the property you wanna check, bestie. this is the one getting the vibe check 💅
• type — the property type you're comparing it against 🔍

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so this is a helper function, and the reason it exists is lowkey funny: the uapi encoding of property types is a bit special, and it's like that for historical reasons 😭 no cap, that's the whole story. that's why you get a cute little helper instead of just comparing things yourself.

like, it's not deep, it's just the safe way to do it. periodt 💖
