mem_info_vis_vram_used(9)

👑 mem_info_vis_vram_used — a page from the Kernel API Manual 💅

okay bestie, so this one is genuinely short and sweet, which honestly? slay. no cap. 🎀

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so the amdgpu driver ships a sysfs API for reporting the current total of used visible VRAM — literally the whole vibe of this page 🫶

the file mem_info_vis_vram_used is the one that does this, and it returns the total amount of currently used visible VRAM in bytes, periodt. that's it. that's the whole thing. iconic behavior honestly 💖

it's giving "just read the file and go" energy, and we love a low-effort main character 🌸
