STRUCT DMUB_REGION(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

✨ struct dmub_region(9) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β€” yes that's the manual name, and yes we're reading it for fun now πŸŽ€. Today's main character is struct dmub_region, aka the lil' struct that describes a dmub hw memory region. That's it. That's the whole vibe. It's giving "small but important" and honestly? Obsessed. πŸ’…


🌸 NAME 🌸

struct dmub_region β€” literally just the dmub hw memory region. no cap, that's the entire name section 🫢


⭐ SYNOPSIS ⭐

here's the whole struct, bestie β€” only two members, we love a minimal queen πŸ‘‘

struct dmub_region {
    uint32_t base;
    uint32_t top;
};

πŸ¦‹ Members πŸ¦‹

so there's exactly two fields and you're gonna wanna know both, fr fr:

  • base β€” the base address for the region. ⚠️ heads up: it must be 256 byte aligned β€” like, this is not a suggestion, it's a requirement, don't come crying to me if you ignore it 😭
  • top β€” the top address for the region. that's it, that's the vibe 🌈
bestie moment: base = where it starts, top = where it tops out. 256-byte alignment on base, or it's not slaying. periodt. πŸ’€

πŸ’– SEE ALSO πŸ’–

okay this is the part where the page goes absolutely feral and lists like every single DMUB thing in existence πŸ’€ but we respect the hustle. Go read these, iykyk:

no seriously, that's the whole list, i counted, and yes i am tired but we ate πŸ”₯

and that's the page, bestie!! πŸŽ€βœ¨ this lil' beauty lives over at ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/display/..., dated October 2026, and it's filed under struct dmub_region(9) in the Kernel API Manual. go forth and align your base addresses to 256 bytes, ily, bye πŸ’œπŸ¦‹πŸŒΈ
