okay so bestie, welcome to the intel_vgpu_write_fence page from the Kernel API Manual β yes, the Kernel API Manual, we're in the big leagues now π
β¨ NAME β¨
intel_vgpu_write_fence β literally writes the fence registers that a vGPU owns π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
void intel_vgpu_write_fence (struct intel_vgpu *vgpu , u32 fence , u64
value );
that's it, that's the whole vibe check π¦
π§ ARGUMENTS π§
vgpuβ the vGPU instance, aka the main character of this whole function πfenceβ the vGPU fence register number, like the lil' ID tag for which fence we're messing with β¨valueβ the fence register value that's getting written in there, no cap π«Ά
π₯ DESCRIPTION π₯
so this function is the one that writes fence registers owned by a vGPU β that's its whole job, iconic behaviour honestly π
and the important lil' detail: the vGPU fence register number gets translated into a HW fence register number before anything happens π₯ iykyk, that translation step is not optional, it's the moment β¨
