β¨ intel_dpll_dump_hw_state(9) β¨
okay so bestie, welcome to the intel_dpll_dump_hw_state(9) page from the Kernel API Manual π
this is a little function in the i915 display code and honestly it's giving "quietly essential" β it just dumps out the hardware state for you. no drama, no cap.
πΈ NAME πΈ
intel_dpll_dump_hw_state β dump that hw_state, periodt π
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
void intel_dpll_dump_hw_state (struct intel_display *display , struct
drm_printer *p , const struct intel_dpll_hw_state *dpll_hw_state );
like, it returns void β nothing comes back out, it's purely a "print it and go" situation π
π ARGUMENTS π
displayβ theintel_displaystructure, your main character of the moment πpβ where to print the state to, i.e. thedrm_printerthat's catching all the output π¨οΈβ¨dpll_hw_stateβ the hw state to be dumped, the actual star of the show π
π§ DESCRIPTION π§
"Dumo out" the relevant values in dpll_hw_state β yes, that typo is literally in the original and I'm keeping it because it's iconic ππ anyway: it prints out the relevant values from dpll_hw_state so you can actually see what the hardware is up to. lowkey so useful, highkey underrated π«Ά
π₯ SEE ALSO π₯
Kernel file ./drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display/intel_dpll_mgr.c β that's where the magic lives, iykyk π
