mipi_dsi_dc...ar_off_multi(9)

okay bestie, welcome to mipi_dsi_dc...ar_off_multi(9) from the Kernel API Manual — yes, the title is serving truncated-iconic, but the actual function is mipi_dsi_dcs_set_tear_off_multi. She’s lowkey niche, highkey useful, and we’re gonna get through her together 🫶✨

💅 NAME 💅

This one has exactly one job: turn off the display module's Tearing Effect output signal on the TE signal line. That’s it, that’s the tea ☕💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

the signature is literally:

void mipi_dsi_dcs_set_tear_off_multi (struct mipi_dsi_multi_context *ctx
);

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• ctx — Context for multiple DSI transactions 🫶

mwah 😽 that’s the whole page, bestie — source vibe lives under ./drivers/gpu/drm, dated October 2026, with the Kernel API Manual name doing its little bow up top. periodt 💖🎀
