✨ sti_gdp_get_free_nodes ✨

okay so this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual bestie, and it's about sti_gdp_get_free_nodes — the little function that goes hunting for a GPU node list nobody's looking at rn 💅

---

🌸 NAME

sti_gdp_get_free_nodes — literally the name, that's it, the original page left this part blank so we're all just vibing with the title 🫶

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS

struct sti_gdp_node_list * sti_gdp_get_free_nodes (struct sti_gdp *gdp
);

yes that's the whole signature, she's a one-argument queen 👑

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS

• gdp — a gdp pointer. that's the entire description the manpage gives us, no cap, so just know it's the gdp pointer and move on 💀

---

🔥 DESCRIPTION

So what does she actually do? She looks for a GDP node list that is not currently read by the HW — like, she's checking which list is free and not being yeeted at the hardware right now. that's the whole vibe check 🌈

---

⭐ RETURN

She returns a pointer to the free GDP node list 💖 iconic behavior, honestly.

ngl bestie this page is short but she ate — every detail here is straight from the source, so don't come for me if the description of gdp is one whole line 💀
