💅 pvr_queue_fence_put(9) ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — genuinely the cutest little corner of the kernel docs, and today's main character is pvr_queue_fence_put. no cap, this one's a tiny function with big "clean up after yourself" energy. iykyk 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

pvr_queue_fence_put — the put wrapper for pvr_queue_fence objects. like, the designated driver who makes sure everybody gets home safe. 🚗✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void pvr_queue_fence_put (struct dma_fence *f );

yep, that's it. she's short, she's sweet, she does exactly one thing and she does it flawlessly. periodt. 💅

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • f — the dma_fence object you're putting. this is the one getting the send-off, so hand her over gently. 🥺

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

okay so here's the tea 🍓 — this function is lowkey a vibe check on your fence:

  • if the pvr_queue_fence has been initialized, we call dma_fence_put on it. slay, normal cleanup, carry on. ✨
  • otherwise, we free the object with dma_fence_free. bye bestie, you never made it to init, no hard feelings. 💀

the whole point? it lets us do the right thing both before and after pvr_queue_fence_init has been called. genuinely iconic design ngl — one entry point, zero "wait, which cleanup path am i supposed to use" panic. 👑
