π jpeg_v2_0_start(9) β from the Kernel API Manual π
okay so picture this: you're deep in the kernel, you found this page called jpeg_v2_0_start(9) in the Kernel API Manual, and you're like "bestie what does this even do" β don't worry, I got you, we're gonna go through the whole thing together β¨
πΈ NAME πΈ
jpeg_v2_0_start β bestie, it literally starts the JPEG block. that's it, that's the whole vibe π
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
int jpeg_v2_0_start (struct amdgpu_device *adev );
like, it takes one thing and gives you back an int. iconic behavior honestly π«Ά
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
adevβ anamdgpu_devicepointer. that's your whole GPU situation right there, she's a pointer, she points, we love her π
π₯ DESCRIPTION π₯
so what does she actually do? she sets up and starts the JPEG block. setup plus start. both. she's doing the most and we're obsessed π
no cap, that's the entire description β the original said it in four words and honestly? respect. lowkey minimal queen behavior π
π SEE ALSO π
the kernel file herself lives here, go say hi:

like the way that list just keeps going β she has range, she has lore, she has fifteen (15) whole related functions and she's not sorry about any of them π
ngl, all the technical deets above are exactly what the original said β no invented tips, no extra claims, just vibes plus facts, fr fr π
and that's a wrap, bestie π this page came to you courtesy of ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu, dated October 2026 β shipped from the Kernel API Manual, mwah, go read some more manpages, ily, bye π§π
