π panthor_subm..._sync_signal(9) β the Kernel API Manual, bestie edition π
okay so listen, this one lives in the Kernel API Manual and it's about the panthor driver β yes the fancy GPU one β and specifically about telling a submit context to signal a syncobj point. it's giving "small function, big responsibilities" energy ngl π
β¨ NAME β¨
panthor_submit_ctx_add_sync_signal β add a signal operation to a submit context. literally that's the whole vibe π¦
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
int panthor_submit_ctx_add_sync_signal (struct panthor_submit_ctx *ctx ,
u32 handle , u64 point );
look at her. three args, returns an int, no notes π
π«Ά ARGUMENTS π«Ά
ctxβ the context you're adding the signal operation to. like, the submit context. that's the main character of this whole page fr β¨handleβ a syncobj handle. yes, that kind of handle. πpointβ the syncobj point. the specific spot. the coordinates of the vibe check π―
β RETURN β
0 on success π β otherwise a negative error value π (so like, check it, bestie, don't just assume it slayed)
π¦ SEE ALSO π¦
okay this list is long β grab a snack, we're going through all of them, no skipping, no cap π:

like I said. a lot. but every single one matters, iykyk π
ngl this whole thing is giving "one function in a very large friend group" β she's not doing it alone, she's part of an ensemble cast π
and that's the page!! source lives at ./drivers/gpu/drm/panthor, dated October 2026 β mwah, go read a syncobj, ily, bye π§π
