STRUCT DRM_ASAHI_VM_BIND(9)

💖 struct drm_asahi_vm_bind(9) 💖

okay so welcome to the Kernel API Manual, bestie — this page is all about struct drm_asahi_vm_bind, and it's lowkey the blueprint for the arguments you pass to DRM_IOCTL_ASAHI_VM_BIND. no cap, every field matters here, so let's get into it 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

struct drm_asahi_vm_bind - Arguments passed to DRM_IOCTL_ASAHI_VM_BIND

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

the shape of it is literally this, bestie:

struct drm_asahi_vm_bind {
    __u32 vm_id;
    __u32 num_binds;
    __u32 stride;
    __u32 pad;
    __u64 userptr;
 };

---

💅 Members 💅

okay, field-by-field, because we are not skipping a single one 💖

• vm_id — The ID of the VM to bind to
• num_binds — number of binds in this IOCTL.
• stride — Stride in bytes between consecutive binds. This allows extensibility of drm_asahi_gem_bind_op.
• pad — MBZ. that's the whole note, periodt.
• userptr — User pointer to an array of num_binds structures of type drm_asahi_gem_bind_op and size stride bytes.

mwah 💋 — source/version vibes: ./include/uapi/drm, dated October 2026, and yes, it's still struct drm_asahi_vm_bind(9). bye bestie 🫶✨
