π panthor_mmu_suspend(9) π
okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual and we're talking about panthor_mmu_suspend β say that five times fast, i swear π it's giving "function name that ate" and honestly? it did.
β¨ NAME β¨
panthor_mmu_suspend β bestie, it suspends the MMU logic. that's the whole vibe. π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
void panthor_mmu_suspend (struct panthor_device *ptdev );
like, that's it. that's the signature. gorgeous, no notes. β¨
π ARGUMENTS π
ptdevβ the Device. the main character of this whole operation, fr fr. π«Ά
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
okay so listen. all we're doing here β lowkey the entire job β is de-assigning the AS slots on all active VMs. that's it. that's the task. no cap.
and why, you ask? because once those slots are de-assigned, things get flushed to the main memory β¨ and then no further access to these VMs is possible. so it's giving "closing the door and locking it behind you" energy. πͺπ iconic behavior honestly.
also we suspend the MMU IRQ. yes, that too. don't forget the IRQ. the IRQ is literally part of the deal. π
π SEE ALSO π
Kernel file ./drivers/gpu/drm/panthor/panthor_mmu.c β go read it, it's right there, iykyk π
