πŸ’… radeon_atrm_call(9) β€” from the Kernel API Manual, bestie

okay so picture this: you're deep in the kernel, it's giving graphics driver energy, and you need a chunk of the vbios. that's literally this function. welcome to radeon_atrm_call(9) πŸŽ€


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int radeon_atrm_call (acpi_handle atrm_handle , uint8_t *bios , int offset , int len );

she returns an int, she takes four things, she's booked and busy 🫢


🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • atrm_handle β€” the ACPI ATRM handle. yeah. that one. πŸ¦‹
  • bios β€” pointer to the vbios image. this is where the goods go πŸ’–
  • offset β€” which offset of the vbios image data you wanna fetch, like picking where in the photo dump you start scrolling πŸ™ˆ
  • len β€” how much vbios image data you're fetching. the length. the vibe check of sizes ⭐

πŸ”₯ DESCRIPTION πŸ”₯

so what she does: she executes ATRM to fetch a chunk of the discrete vbios image on PX systems β€” and yes, that's on all asics, no exceptions, we love an inclusive icon πŸ‘‘

and the return? the length of the buffer fetched. periodt. that's the whole flex πŸ’…

  • radeon_acpi_vfct_match(9) β€” the sibling, the costar, the main character energy πŸ’œ

ngl if you're here you're probably writing or debugging radeon bios code, and honestly? obsessed with your commitment 🧚

and that's a wrap, bestie πŸ’– this lil page lives in ./drivers/gpu/drm/radeon, dated October 2026, and it's titled radeon_atrm_call(9) from the Kernel API Manual β€” slay, go fetch that vbios chunk πŸ“βœ¨
