STRUCT DMUB_HPD_WORK(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ¦‹ struct dmub_hpd_work(9) πŸ¦‹

okay so bestie, welcome to the dmub_hpd_work man page β€” this is from the Kernel API Manual and honestly? it's giving "small struct, big responsibilities" ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

struct dmub_hpd_work β€” handles the time-consuming work over in the low priority outbox IRQ πŸ’… no cap, that's literally the whole job description.


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

struct dmub_hpd_work {
    struct work_struct handle_hpd_work;
    struct dmub_notification *dmub_notify;
    struct amdgpu_device *adev;
 };

that's the whole struct, she's compact and she knows it πŸŽ€


πŸ’– Members πŸ’–

  • handle_hpd_work β€” the work that gets executed in a separate thread so it can handle hpd_low_irq. yes bestie, a whole separate thread β€” we do NOT block the main character here πŸ‘‘
  • dmub_notify β€” the notification for the callback function. it's a struct dmub_notification * and it's just here to get called back on 🫢
  • adev β€” an amdgpu_device pointer, the classic "hold my device handle" moment πŸ”₯

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

πŸ’€ quick vibe check: this page came out of ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/display/... and it's dated October 2026 β€” and the manual is named struct dmub_hpd_work(9) for anyone keeping score πŸ—“οΈ

and that's the page bestie, 10/10 ate, no crumbs β€” see u in the next one πŸ§šπŸ’–
