STRUCT DRM_PVR_JOB(9)

💖 struct drm_pvr_job 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual entry for struct drm_pvr_job 💅 this is the little struct that carries Job arguments passed to the %DRM_IOCTL_PVR_SUBMIT_JOBS ioctl. iconic behavior, honestly.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

       struct drm_pvr_job {
           __u32 type;
           __u32 context_handle;
           __u32 flags;
           __u32 cmd_stream_len;
           __u64 cmd_stream;
           struct drm_pvr_obj_array sync_ops;
           struct drm_pvr_hwrt_data_ref hwrt;
        };

🫶 Members 🫶

🌸 type

[IN] Type of job being submitted.

This must be one of the values defined by enum drm_pvr_job_type. periodt.

🦋 context_handle

[IN] Context handle.

When job_type is DRM_PVR_JOB_TYPE_RENDER, DRM_PVR_JOB_TYPE_COMPUTE or DRM_PVR_JOB_TYPE_TRANSFER_FRAG, this must be a valid handle returned by DRM_IOCTL_PVR_CREATE_CONTEXT. The type of context must be compatible with the type of job being submitted. no cap.

When job_type is DRM_PVR_JOB_TYPE_NULL, this must be zero.

🎀 flags

[IN] Flags for command.

Those are job-dependent. See all DRM_PVR_SUBMIT_JOB_*.

⭐ cmd_stream_len

[IN] Length of command stream, in bytes.

🍓 cmd_stream

[IN] Pointer to command stream for command.

The command stream must be u64-aligned.

🧚 sync_ops

[IN] Fragment sync operations.

👑 hwrt

[IN] HWRT data used by render jobs (geometry or fragment).

Must be zero for non-render jobs. lowkey important.
