drm_syncobj_..._null_handle(9)

✨ NAME ✨

drm_syncobj_assign_null_handle — bestie, this one assigns a stub fence to the sync object 💅

So real quick, this page lives in the Kernel API Manual, and the page itself is drm_syncobj_..._null_handle(9) — yes the name is long, she's an icon, we respect her 🎀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int drm_syncobj_assign_null_handle (struct drm_syncobj *syncobj );

That's it. That's the whole vibe check. One function, one argument, returns an int 🫶

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• syncobj — the sync object you're assigning the fence on. That's the one, that's the target, she's the main character here 👑

---

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

Okay so the whole entire plot: you take a stub fence that is already signaled and you assign it to the sync object. That's the function. No cap, that's genuinely all it does 💖

No "wait for it", no "maybe later" — the fence is already signaled when it gets there, so it's giving done-before-it-started energy and honestly? Obsessed ✨
