ENUM DRM_PVR_CTX_PRIORITY(9)

💅 enum drm_pvr_ctx_priority(9)

okay so this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual, and it's literally just the priority enum for PowerVR contexts. tiny page, but it matters, bestie 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

enum drm_pvr_ctx_priority — these are the arguments for &drm_pvr_ioctl_create_context_args.priority, iykyk 🌸

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

enum drm_pvr_ctx_priority {
    DRM_PVR_CTX_PRIORITY_LOW ,
    DRM_PVR_CTX_PRIORITY_NORMAL ,
    DRM_PVR_CTX_PRIORITY_HIGH

};

like, that's the whole thing. three vibes. low, normal, high. periodt 💅

---

⭐ Constants ⭐

• DRM_PVR_CTX_PRIORITY_LOW — priority below normal. the chill, background-energy one 🍓
• DRM_PVR_CTX_PRIORITY_NORMAL — normal priority. the default main character, no notes ✨
• DRM_PVR_CTX_PRIORITY_HIGH — priority above normal. okay but real talk: this one requires CAP_SYS_NICE or DRM_MASTER, so don't just roll up and expect it to work 🙈

bestie I'm not kidding, DRM_PVR_CTX_PRIORITY_HIGH is gated. you need CAP_SYS_NICE or DRM_MASTER or it's simply not happening 💀
