Okay so picture this: it's giving "kernel API manual" but make it a group chat. We're in the pvr_context_create_queues(9) page, and honestly? She's a short one but she matters. This is the function that spins up, like, all the queues that are attached to a context. Every single one. Periodt. π

Yeah she's a three-argument girlie. Copy it exactly, don't @ me. π
π ARGUMENTS π
ctxβ the context you're creating queues on. This is the main character right here. πargsβ the context creation arguments, and they're passed by userspace, so you know they came from the outside world. π«Άfw_ctx_mapβ the CPU mapping of the FW context object. FW = firmware, iykyk. β¨
