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 πŸ‘‘


✨ NAME ✨

intel_vgpu_write_fence β€” literally writes the fence registers that a vGPU owns πŸŽ€


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void intel_vgpu_write_fence (struct intel_vgpu *vgpu , u32 fence , u64
       value );

that's it, that's the whole vibe check πŸ¦‹


🧚 ARGUMENTS 🧚

  • vgpu β€” the vGPU instance, aka the main character of this whole function πŸ’–
  • fence β€” the vGPU fence register number, like the lil' ID tag for which fence we're messing with ✨
  • value β€” the fence register value that's getting written in there, no cap 🫢

πŸ”₯ DESCRIPTION πŸ”₯

so this function is the one that writes fence registers owned by a vGPU β€” that's its whole job, iconic behaviour honestly πŸ‘‘

and the important lil' detail: the vGPU fence register number gets translated into a HW fence register number before anything happens πŸ”₯ iykyk, that translation step is not optional, it's the moment ✨
