struct intel_vgpu_mm * intel_vgpu_find_ppgtt_mm (struct intel_vgpu *vgpu
, u64 pdps[] );
literally the whole signature, character for character, no cap. return type is struct intel_vgpu_mm *, and she takes a struct intel_vgpu *vgpu plus a u64 pdps[]. periodt.
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
vgpuβ a vGPU. your girl. the virtual graphics processing unit in question πpdpsβ pdp root array. yes, an array. of pdp roots. it's giving structurally important π
π DESCRIPTION π
okay so here's the tea: this function is used to find a PPGTT mm object from the mm object pool. that's the whole job. she's a finder. a locator. a "where is it bestie" specialist π
