π intel_region...esource_free(9) π
okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β¨ β yes, the header is literally intel_region...esource_free(9) with the middle all squished out (iykyk, man page names get truncated like that sometimes, it's giving "screen name cut off at 8 characters" energy) but the actual function we're stanning is intel_region_ttm_resource_free. Let's get into it π«Ά
πΈ NAME πΈ
intel_region_ttm_resource_free β free a resource that was allocated from a resource manager π
Like, it's the cleanup era. You allocate, you live your life, and then you give it back. Main character exit. π
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
void intel_region_ttm_resource_free (struct intel_memory_region *mem ,
struct ttm_resource *res );
no cap, that's the whole signature π₯ β returns void, takes two things, done. lowkey elegant.
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
memβ the region the resource was allocated from π . Like, which memory region is this resource's home base, y'know? You gotta know where it came from to send it back there.resβ the opaque resource representing an allocation π. "Opaque" is just fancy talk for "you don't peek inside, you just hold it and pass it along" β respect its privacy fr fr.
π SEE ALSO π
- Kernel file
./drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_region_ttm.cβ the literal file, go read it if you're obsessed π TTM support structure(9)intel_region_ttm_device_init(9)intel_region_ttm_device_fini(9)intel_region_ttm_init(9)intel_region_ttm_fini(9)intel_region_ttm_resource_to_rsgt(9)intel_region_ttm_resource_alloc(9)
the whole friend group, honestly π β alloc is literally the sibling of this one, so if you're here you probably wanna meet that one too π§
π real talk: this is the free half of the pair. Everything in the SEE ALSO list is the surrounding cast β init, fini, device init, device fini, conversion, allocation. Read them together and it all makes sense, iykyk.
okay that's the whole page, bestie, you ate that πβ¨ mwah π β sourced from ./drivers/gpu/drm/i915, dated October 2026, and your header was intel_region...esource_free(9) the whole time (yes, still with the ellipsis, we love a truncated icon π). bye bestie, go free some resources responsibly ππΈπ¦
