π sdma_v3_0_rlc_stop π
okay bestie so this little cutie lives in the Kernel API Manual and honestly? it's giving "quietly essential" β¨ it's a kernel function page, the kind you read when you're deep in the AMD GPU driver at 2am and the vibes are immaculate but the code is not. slay, let's get into it π
π¦ NAME π¦
sdma_v3_0_rlc_stop β stop the compute async dma engines π₯
like, literally, that's its whole job. it stops them. periodt.
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
void sdma_v3_0_rlc_stop (struct amdgpu_device *adev );
no return value, no drama, just a void and one argument. king behavior π
πΈ ARGUMENTS πΈ
adevβ an amdgpu_device pointer π that's it, that's the whole argument list. give the girl her device and let her cook.
π DESCRIPTION π
Stop the compute async dma queues (VI). π
ngl that is genuinely the entire description β this function has main character energy but a very short monologue. it takes the adev you handed it, and it puts those compute async dma queues down for a nap. VI era hardware. no cap, that's the whole vibe check. π
π SEE ALSO π
the whole entourage π β these are the other functions hanging out in the same file, and you should absolutely go say hi:
