β¨ intel_dp_tunnel_atomic_cleanup_inherited_state β¨
okay bestie, so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual (yes, the intel_dp_tun...erited_state(9) one, she's famous) and honestly she's short but she's important π
so let's get into it π«Ά
π NAME π
intel_dp_tunnel_atomic_cleanup_inherited_state β literally just frees any inherited DP tunnel state. that's her whole job. no cap. π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
void intel_dp_tunnel_atomic_cleanup_inherited_state (struct
intel_atomic_state *state );
like, it returns void so don't go looking for a return value, she gives you nothing back and that's the vibe π
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
stateβ the atomic state. yeah that's it. that's the whole argument. one (1) thing. iconic of her honestly β¨
π DESCRIPTION π
so the actual tea β: this function frees the inherited DP tunnel state in state. that's the description. that's it. it does the one thing and she does it well, periodt π₯
like ngl bestie there is not a lot of lore here β you hand her an atomic state, she cleans up whatever inherited DP tunnel state is chilling inside it. main character energy of a cleanup function fr fr π
β SEE ALSO β
okay so this is the part where you meet the whole friend group π β the kernel file itself lives at:
./drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display/intel_dp_tunnel.c
and here are all her besties, in the order the page gives them, i'm not skipping a single one because everyone deserves their moment π:
intel_dp_tunnel_disconnect(9)intel_dp_tunnel_destroy(9)intel_dp_tunnel_detect(9)intel_dp_tunnel_bw_alloc_is_enabled(9)intel_dp_tunnel_pr_optimization_supported(9)intel_dp_tunnel_suspend(9)intel_dp_tunnel_resume(9)intel_dp_tunnel_atomic_add_state_for_crtc(9)intel_dp_tunnel_atomic_check_state(9)intel_dp_tunnel_atomic_compute_stream_bw(9)intel_dp_tunnel_atomic_clear_stream_bw(9)intel_dp_tunnel_atomic_check_link(9)intel_dp_tunnel_atomic_alloc_bw(9)intel_dp_tunnel_mgr_init(9)intel_dp_tunnel_mgr_cleanup(9)
go read them all, i'll wait π§π
β οΈ friendly heads up: this page is thin on details on purpose β everything she does is "free the inherited DP tunnel state in state". don't invent extra behaviour for her, she doesn't need it π
π okay that's the whole page, you ate that. she comes from ./drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display, dated October 2026, and she answers to intel_dp_tun...erited_state(9) β mwah, love u, bye bestie πππ¦
