💅 sdma_v7_0_ring_emit_mem_sync(9) 💅

okay so bestie, we're in the Kernel API Manual today and the star of the show is sdma_v7_0_ring_emit_mem_sync — yes the header truncates it to sdma_v7_0_ri...mit_mem_sync(9) like it's too iconic for a full name, but we know her full name, we been knew 💖

literally returns nothing (void, she gives nothing and slays doing it), takes exactly one arg, periodt 🫶

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • ring — amdgpu ring pointer 💫 that's it, that's the whole parameter list, she's a one-arg wonder and we respect it

and here's the whole friend group, all linked up, all matching (9) energy, none of them skipped because we don't do that here 💅:

💀 reminder bestie: every one of these is (9) — kernel API section, not section 1, not section 8, we stay consistent ✨
