sdma_v5_0_rlc_stop(9)
π sdma_v5_0_rlc_stop β a whole kernel API manual moment
okay bestie so this is sdma_v5_0_rlc_stop(9), straight out of the Kernel API Manual, and it's genuinely one of those tiny functions that does exactly one thing and does it iconically. no notes. β¨
πΈ NAME πΈ
sdma_v5_0_rlc_stop β stop the compute async dma engines</p> π
that's it. that's the whole job. she stops them. periodt.
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
void sdma_v5_0_rlc_stop (struct amdgpu_device *adev );
like, literally void, so she gives you nothing back β she's not here for a return value, she's here for the vibe of stopping things. π«Ά
π ARGUMENTS π
adevβ anamdgpu_devicepointer. that's it, one (1) argument, your fave lowkey handoff. she just needs the device pointer and she's good to go π
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
<highlight>Stop the compute async dma queues (NAVI10).</highlight>
no cap, that's the whole rundown β this is the NAVI10 flavor of stopping the compute async dma queues. not me being obsessed with how clean that is ππ₯
π SEE ALSO π
the whole friend group, fr fr. she does not exist in a vacuum, she's part of a squad:

like look at that list. main character energy from every single one of them π iykyk.
bestie reminder: this page is Kernel API Manual territory, so everything above is the whole entire page β no skipped options, no "etc." cop-outs. the facts stay, the slay is added π
sign-off time π so this whole little love letter lives in ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu, dated October 2026, and it's page sdma_v5_0_rlc_stop(9) of the Kernel API Manual β go drink some water and go stop those compute async dma queues, bestie ππ§π
