πŸ’… radeon_cs_dump_packet β€” a Kernel API Manual moment ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the radeon_cs_dump_packet(9) page, it lives in the Kernel API Manual and honestly it's short and sweet and we're gonna stan it anyway 🫢


🌸 NAME 🌸

radeon_cs_dump_packet β€” dump raw packet context. that's it. that's the whole vibe. no cap πŸ’–


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void radeon_cs_dump_packet (struct radeon_cs_parser *p , struct
       radeon_cs_packet *pkt );

literally just those two args and it returns void, so like… it does a thing and gives nothing back. mysterious. iconic. πŸŽ€


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • p β€” this one's a struct radeon_cs_parser *, and it's the structure holding the parser context. the parser's whole little world lives in here πŸ’œ
  • pkt β€” this one's a struct radeon_cs_packet *, the structure holding the packet. the packet in question. the main character of the operation πŸ‘‘

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

so what does it do? it's used mostly for debugging and error reporting β€” like when things are going sideways and you need to actually see the raw packet context instead of guessing πŸ™ˆ it's giving "detective work" energy, fr fr.
