💅 radeon_vm_init(9)

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual — yes, the kernel API manual, we're literally in the big leagues now bestie 🎀 — and it's all about one lil function called radeon_vm_init. she's small. she's iconic. she initializes a vm instance. periodt.

✨ NAME ✨

radeon_vm_init — initialize a vm instance 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int radeon_vm_init (struct radeon_device *rdev , struct radeon_vm *vm );

that's the whole signature, no cap. returns an int, takes two pointers, slays.

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

  • rdev — a radeon_device pointer. that's the radeon device itself, the whole vibe. 🫶
  • vm — the requested vm. like, the one you're asking for. main character energy fr.

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

Init vm fields (cayman+). 💅

that's it. that's the description. she sets up the fields of the vm — and just so we're clear, this is for cayman and up (the cayman+ part is doing a lot of work there, don't skip it 🙈).

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

the kernel file lives at ./drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon_vm.c — go read it, iykwip 👀 — and then there's the whole friend group:

twenty-five besties. no i didn't count, okay maybe i did 💀. go read them all, they're literally all connected, it's giving family tree.

and that's the page 🌈 this one's from ./drivers/gpu/drm/radeon, dated October 2026, and it's radeon_vm_init(9) — stan her, she's doing vm field initialization for cayman+ and she ate 💜✨
