π jpeg_v4_0_3_sw_init(9) β like, the whole entire Kernel API Manual, bestie π
okay so welcome to the kernel API manual, bestie, and specifically to this one little function that lives in the JPEG block and handles the software init. it's giving "small function, big responsibilities." let's get into it β¨
πΈ NAME πΈ
jpeg_v4_0_3_sw_init β the sw init for the JPEG block. yes, that's it, that's the whole name. short, sweet, iconic. π
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
int jpeg_v4_0_3_sw_init (struct amdgpu_ip_block *ip_block );
literally just one function, one argument, returns an int. no cap. π«Ά
β¨ ARGUMENTS β¨
ip_blockβ Pointer to theamdgpu_ip_blockfor this hw instance. like, the specific hardware's little identity card. you hand it over and the function knows exactly which hw instance it's dealing with π
π DESCRIPTION π
Load firmware and sw initialization.
that's the whole vibe, ngl β it loads the firmware and does the sw init. firmware loading is the main character here, and the sw init is the supporting role that makes it all work. π₯
