✨ gfx_v7_0_rlc_start(9) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual 💖 this one's a little function page and honestly? it's giving "short but crucial." let me walk you through it 🫶

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

gfx_v7_0_rlc_start — start the RLC ME, no cap 👑

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void gfx_v7_0_rlc_start (struct amdgpu_device *adev );

like, that's the whole signature. one arg, no return. clean. iconic. ✨

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• adev — an amdgpu_device pointer 💅 that's it, that's the argument, she's a pointer to the amdgpu device and she's the main character here.

---

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

Unhalt the RLC ME (MicroEngine) (CIK). literally just unhalt it — wake it up, let it live its truth 🧚 out here unhalting microengines like it's nothing. CIK energy fr fr 🔥

ngl, gfx_v7_0_rlc_start and gfx_v7_0_rlc_stop(9) are literally the same page in different fonts — start her up, shut her down, the duality of microengine 💅

okay that's the whole page bestie, you ate 💅✨ this little beauty lives over in ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu, dated October 2026, and she answers to the name gfx_v7_0_rlc_start(9) 🎀 bye ily 🫶💖
