💅 sdma_v5_0_ring_emit_ib — from the Kernel API Manual, bestie ✨

Okay so picture this: you're deep in the kernel docs, lowkey living your best life in the Kernel API Manual, and you stumble onto sdma_v5_0_ring_emit_ib. Bestie. This is the one. Let me put you on. 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

sdma_v5_0_ring_emit_ib — schedule an IB on the DMA engine. That's it, that's the whole vibe. Main character energy fr fr.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void sdma_v5_0_ring_emit_ib (struct amdgpu_ring *ring , struct
amdgpu_job *job , struct amdgpu_ib *ib , uint32_t flags );

Not me obsessed with how it returns void — it just does the thing and dips, no feedback, iconic. 💅

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • ring — the amdgpu ring pointer. Your venue, your stage, the place where it all goes down. 👑
  • job — the job you're pulling the vmid from. Yes, the vmid lives in here, don't ask, just trust. 🔥
  • ib — the IB object you're scheduling. This is the actual little packet of work getting its moment. ⭐
  • flags — unused. Literally just vibing there in the signature, contributing nothing, and honestly? Respect. 💀

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Schedule an IB in the DMA ring (NAVI10). That's the whole plot. Short, sweet, NAVI10-coded. 🌈

💖 SEE ALSO 💖

The kernel file that started it all:

And the whole friend group, no cap, every single one of them:

Okay that's the whole page, you ate that, go schedule an IB responsibly bestie 💜

And that's a wrap! 🍓 This little gem comes from the Kernel API Manual, dated October 2026, with its source living at ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu — and the page itself is sdma_v5_0_ring_emit_ib(9). Byeee, mwah! 😭💖
