intel_th_gth_stop(9)

🎀 NAME 🎀

okay so bestie, this is the intel_th_gth_stop(9) page from the Kernel API Manual, and it is literally about stopping tracing to an output device. No cap: it is the “we are done capturing here” moment. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

Here is the exact signature, character for character, don’t come for me:

void intel_th_gth_stop (struct gth_device *gth , struct intel_th_output
       *output , bool capture_done );

💅 ARGUMENTS 💅

• gth — the GTH device. That is the device we are working with, periodt. 🫶
• output — the output device’s descriptor. It is giving “which output are we stopping?” energy. ✨
• capture_done — set when no more traces will be captured. Like, no more capture era, we are wrapping it up. 😭

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

This function stops tracing using force storeEn off signal and waits for the pipelines to be empty for the corresponding output port. That is the whole plot: force that storeEn off vibe, then wait for the pipelines tied to that output port to drain. 🫧
