intel_vgpu_clean_gtt(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 intel_vgpu_clean_gtt — okay so this is from the Kernel API Manual, bestie 🎀

Like, the full glow-up name is intel_vgpu_clean_gtt(9) and it lives in the Kernel API Manual, and it's about tidying up. We love a cleanup era. ✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void intel_vgpu_clean_gtt (struct intel_vgpu *vgpu);

That's it. That's the whole call. No cap, she's a one-liner. 🫶

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • vgpu — a vGPU. that's literally the entire description the manpage gives us. one (1) whole vGPU, handed to you, no further notes. iconic minimalism honestly 💅

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So this function's whole job? Cleaning up the per-vGPU graphics memory virulization components. (Yes, the manpage spells it like that — I'm not touching it, it's giving original-flavor charm 🍓.)

The way that this works is: you've got per-vGPU graphics memory virtualization stuff sitting around, and this function is the one that goes in and cleans it up. It's the "okay bestie, time to put the toys away" of the GVT world. 🧹✨

⭐ RETURN ⭐

The manpage says zero on success, or an error code if it failed. 😭

lowkey a jumpscare: the SYNOPSIS says this returns void, and then the RETURN section talks about zero on success and error codes. bestie i am simply reporting what the page says, do with that information what you will 🙈 — either way, the manpage's official word is "Zero on success, error code if failed."

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

The kernel file to go peek at is:

And here's the whole friend group — every single one of these, no skips, no cuts, we're listing all of them because they're all part of the lore 💜:

and that's the page!! 🫶 this lil gem is sourced from ./drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gvt, dated October 2026 — so she's from the future, main character energy fr fr. go clean up that graphics memory, bestie, i believe in you 💖✨🎀
