mips_cm_max_vp_width(9)

💅 mips_cm_max_vp_width(9) — like, the Kernel API Manual bestie, we're doing this 🎀

okay so picture this: you're deep in MIPS land, you're poking at Coherence Manager stuff, and you need to know how many bits the VP indices get in those combined core-&-VP fields. That's it. That's the whole function. It's giving "one job, does it slay" ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

mips_cm_max_vp_width — returns the width, in bits, of VP indices. literally just the bit-width, that's the vibe 💖

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

unsigned int mips_cm_max_vp_width (void );

no cap, that's the whole signature 🫶

---

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

• void — no arguments. nothing. zero. empty set. she takes nothing and she gives you a number 💅

---

👑 RETURN 👑

the width, in bits, of VP indices in fields that combine core & VP indices. yes ma'am, that's the return value, that's what you came for ⭐

bestie heads up: this page lives at ./arch/mips/include/asm, and it's dated October 2026, and it's filed under mips_cm_max_vp_width(9) — so if you're citing it, that's the receipt 🧚💜

k byeee, go get your VP width 💖🌸🎀
