intel_crtc_destroy_state(9)

💅 intel_crtc_destroy_state(9) — from the Kernel API Manual, bestie

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's about intel_crtc_destroy_state — yes the name is a mouthful, no we're not abbreviating it, it's iconic as is. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

intel_crtc_destroy_state — destroy crtc state. that's it. that's the whole vibe. it destroys. the crtc state. 💀

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

ok so the signature is literally right here, copy it exactly, don't freestyle:

void intel_crtc_destroy_state (struct drm_crtc *crtc , struct
drm_crtc_state *state );

returns nothing (void), takes two things. slay. 🫶

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• crtc — a drm crtc. that's the whole description, she's brief and she knows it. 👑
• state — the state to destroy. like, this is the one getting destroyed. rip to her but it's her whole purpose. 🕊️

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so what does it actually do? it destroys the crtc state for the specified crtc — and both kinds, bestie: the common parts and the Intel-specific parts. not one or the other. both. together. periodt. 💅

like it's giving "full cleanup, no crumbs left behind." the state gets destroyed, the crtc you named is the one it applies to, and that's genuinely the whole story on this page. ✨
