drm_sched_entity_flush(9)

💅 drm_sched_entity_flush(9) — Kernel API Manual ✨

okay bestie, welcome to drm_sched_entity_flush(9) from the Kernel API Manual — this one's all about flushing a context entity and it's lowkey iconic 🎀

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

drm_sched_entity_flush — Flush a context entity 💫

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

long drm_sched_entity_flush (struct drm_sched_entity *entity , long
timeout );

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• entity — scheduler entity 🌈 (the main character of this whole operation, ngl)
• timeout — time to wait in for Q to become empty in jiffies ⏳ fr fr, that's the clock you're working with

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So here's the tea ☕: this is basically splitting drm_sched_entity_fini into two functions, and drm_sched_entity_flush is the first one 🫶. What it does is:

• does the waiting ⏰
• removes the entity from the runqueue 🚪
• returns an error when the process was killed 💀 (yep, it'll let you know)

And then — the return value, bestie — it returns the remaining time in jiffies left from the input timeout ⭐ so you know exactly how much waiting time you still had on the clock. periodt 💅
