STRUCT AMDGPU_VM_UPDATE_PARAMS(9)

💅 struct amdgpu_vm_update_params(9) 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for struct amdgpu_vm_update_params — yes the title literally gets truncated to struct amdgp...pdate_params(9) everywhere, it's giving cunty little ellipsis, we love that for it 💀

---

✨ NAME ✨

struct amdgpu_vm_update_params — and ngl, the manpage just leaves the description blank after the dash. Iconic behavior honestly. Sometimes you just don't need to explain yourself 🫶

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

struct amdgpu_vm_update_params {
    struct amdgpu_device *adev;
    struct amdgpu_vm *vm;
    bool immediate;
    bool unlocked;
    dma_addr_t *pages_addr;
    struct amdgpu_job *job;
    unsigned int num_dw_left;
    bool needs_flush;
    bool override_pte;
    struct list_head tlb_flush_waitlist;
 };

look at her. ten fields. main character energy fr fr ✨

🎀 Members 🎀

okay bestie let's go field by field, no skipping, we don't do that here:

• adev — the amdgpu device we do this update for 👑
• vm — optional amdgpu_vm we do this update for (yes it's optional, she's flexible)
• immediate — if changes should be made immediately ⚡
• unlocked — true if the root BO is not locked 🔓
• pages_addr — DMA addresses to use for mapping 🗺️
• job — job to used for hw submission (grammar said what it said, we're keeping it 💀)
• num_dw_left — number of dw left for the IB
• needs_flush — true whenever we need to invalidate the TLB 🚽✨
• override_pte — true for memory that is not uncached and gmc override function is implemented to allow MTYPE to be overridden for NUMA local memory 🧠
• tlb_flush_waitlist — temporary storage for BOs until tlb_flush 📦

---

🌸 Description 🌸

so the whole point, the entire raison d'être of this struct: it encapsulates some VM table update parameters to reduce the number of function parameters 💖

that's it. that's the vibe. she's a bundle, she's a little bag of args, she exists so your function signatures don't look like a CVS receipt 😭

and that's the page bestie!! before you go — this lil masterpiece lives under ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu, dated October 2026, and the footer just repeats struct amdgp...pdate_params(9) at us one more time like a lil echo. slay, periodt, bye 💜🎀🦋
