πŸ’… drm_vma_node_unmap(9)

okay so bestie, welcome to the glow-up of <pink>drm_vma_node_unmap</pink> β€” straight out of the Kernel API Manual, no cap. this is the little function that ✨*unmaps offset nodes*✨ and honestly? it's giving cleanup crew energy. πŸ§ΉπŸ’–


✨ NAME ✨

drm_vma_node_unmap β€” Unmap offset node πŸ”₯


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

void drm_vma_node_unmap (struct drm_vma_offset_node *node , struct
       address_space *file_mapping );

that's the whole vibe, fr fr. it returns void, so like… it gives nothing back, it just does the thing. πŸ‘‘


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • node β€” the Offset node. this is our main character. 🌟
  • file_mapping β€” the Address space to unmap node from. yes, we're ripping it out of this specific address space, iykyk. πŸ’«

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so what it literally does: Unmap all userspace mappings for a given offset node. all of them. periodt. πŸ’…

here's the catch tho, and bestie you need to hear this β€” those mappings must be associated with the file_mapping address-space. that's the rule, no exceptions. 🫢

and if no offset exists? nothing happens. it just… does nothing. no drama, no error, just 🧚 silence. literally a nothing-burger.

⚠️ warning warning ⚠️ β€” This call is unlocked. as in, no lock, no safety net, no hand-holding. 😭 The caller must guarantee that drm_vma_offset_remove is not called on this node concurrently. if you let those two overlap, that's on you, not me. πŸ™ˆ

πŸ‘‘ SEE ALSO πŸ‘‘

go read those too, i'm not gonna gatekeep the lore. πŸ“šβœ¨
