STRUCT DRM_MODE_GET_LEASE(9)

💖 struct drm_mode_get_lease(9) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — yes that's the manual name, and yes this page is a whole little struct, and no it is not boring, i promise 🫶

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

struct drm_mode_get_lease — Get Lease ✨ (that's it. that's the whole name. short, sweet, iconic.)

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

like, here's the vibe, literally copied character for character so u don't have to trust my memory:

struct drm_mode_get_lease {
    __u32 count_objects;
    __u32 pad;
    __u64 objects_ptr;
 };

three members. one struct. the way that it just sits there being useful 💅

---

🦋 Members 🦋

okay so these are the actual fields, and ngl they all pull their weight:

• count_objects — Number of leased objects. 🍓

and listen, this one is doing double duty, lowkey main character energy: on input it gives the length of the array. on output it gives the total number. no more than the input number will be written back, so u can do two calls — one to get the size, then one to get the data. that's the trick, iykyk. ✨

• pad — Padding. literally just vibes and alignment, bestie. it is padding. that's the job. respect it 🙈
• objects_ptr — Pointer to objects. 💜

specifically a Pointer to __u32 array of object ids. so like, the actual goods live over there, this is just the address of the party 🔥

---

🌈 Description 🌈

Get leased objects. 🎀

that's the whole description. short king. it gets the leased objects, and it does it slayfully. periodt 💅
