pvr_vm_get_dma_resv(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 pvr_vm_get_dma_resv(9) 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the pvr_vm_get_dma_resv page from the Kernel API Manual — yes, section 9, we're being fancy today ✨ this one's short and sweet and honestly kind of a flex, so let's get into it 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

pvr_vm_get_dma_resv — expose the dma_resv owned by the VM context, no cap 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct dma_resv * pvr_vm_get_dma_resv (struct pvr_vm_context *vm_ctx );

like, that's it. that's the whole vibe check. one function, one arg, one pointer back 🔥

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • vm_ctx — the target VM context 🎯 literally just the VM context you're pointing at, that's the whole job

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the tea ☕ this one exists so that private BOs can share a dma_resv — and the reason is genuinely iconic: it's for faster fence updates ⚡ like, shared resv = fewer headaches = speed. it's giving efficiency, it's giving teamwork, it's giving "we all share one resv and we're thriving" 🧚

⭐ RETURN ⭐

the dma_resv pointer 💖 that's it, that's what you get back bestie 👑

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

okay this list is LONG, so buckle up — iykyk 💀 everything here is (9) and lives in the Kernel file ./drivers/gpu/drm/imagination/pvr_vm.c:

like, the whole friend group showed up 😭🫶 go read them, they're all main characters too 💜

lowkey reminder: this is a kernel API page, so if you're here you're probably writing driver code — slay, but be careful out there 🍓

and that's a wrap!! this page came from ./drivers/gpu/drm/imagination and it's dated October 2026 — mwah, bye bestie, go touch some fences (the GPU kind) 💋🎀✨
