intel_vgpu_emulate_hotplug(9)

💅 intel_vgpu_emulate_hotplug 💅

okay so bestie, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, section 9 — and it's literally all about triggering a hotplug event for a vGPU. tiny page, big main character energy ✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void intel_vgpu_emulate_hotplug (struct intel_vgpu *vgpu , bool
       connected );

no cap, that's the whole signature. she takes two things and returns nothing (void), because she's not here to hand you answers, she's here to make things happen 💅

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• vgpu — a vGPU 🫶 literally just… the vGPU. the one we're doing the thing to. that's her.
• connected — link state 🔌 the vibe check for whether the link is connected or not, iykyk.

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so like. this function is used to trigger a hotplug interrupt for the vGPU 🔥 that's it. that's the whole job. one (1) task, done flawlessly, iconic behaviour honestly 👑
