okay so this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual, and honestly? it's a short one but it's a baddie. bestie, we're talking about intel_vgpu_reset_resource(9) β the function that hits the reset button on everything a vGPU owns. let's get into it π«Ά
β¨ NAME β¨
intel_vgpu_reset_resource β reset resource state owned by a vGPU
like, it literally does what it says on the tin. no cap. the vGPU's resource state? reset. iconic behavior honestly π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
void intel_vgpu_reset_resource (struct intel_vgpu *vgpu );
that's it. that's the whole vibe. one argument, returns void (so don't go looking for a return value, she gives you nothing back and she's not sorry π
).
π ARGUMENTS π
vgpuβ a vGPU. yep, that's the entire description. just "a vGPU". the docs really said "you know the one" and honestly? you do. it's a *struct intel_vgpu * and it's the star of the show π
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
so here's the tea: this function is used to reset resource state owned by a vGPU. that's the whole plot. that's the entire lore.
no extra flags, no secret side quests, no "but wait there's more" β it resets the resource state that belongs to that vGPU, and that is exactly the assignment. it understood the mission, it went to therapy, it did the work π
if you came here looking for a wild backstory, bestie, this is giving "she's beauty, she's grace, she resets resource state." periodt π

ok real talk: this one has no warnings, no deprecations, no undefined-behavior jumpscares. she's a clean, safe, well-behaved little kernel function and we love that for her πβ¨
that's the whole page, bestie β no crumbs left behind π this came from ./drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gvt, dated October 2026, brought to you by the Kernel API Manual. mwah, go reset something ππ§ββοΈ
