STRUCT PANTHOR_FILE(9)
π struct panthor_file(9) π
okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual, and today's main character is literally struct panthor_file β the Panthor file struct, serving looks and holding all your per-file state. no cap, she's the whole vibe. π
β¨ NAME β¨
struct panthor_file β Panthor file. that's it, that's the name, and honestly? iconic. π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
here's the shape of her, exactly as she is, no edits, we do not touch the source:
struct panthor_file {
struct panthor_device *ptdev;
struct {
u64 offset;
} user_mmio;
struct panthor_vm_pool *vms;
struct panthor_group_pool *groups;
struct panthor_gpu_usage stats;
};
like, look at that little anonymous struct nestled inside user_mmio β she's shy but she's there. π«Ά
π¦ Members π¦
so every field has a job and they all ate, let's go through the roster:
ptdevβ the device attached to this file. your file's plus-one, fr fr. πuser_mmioβ user MMIO related fields. yes, MMIO β memory-mapped I/O, and yeah it's giving "hardware but make it userspace-adjacent." the actual field inside isoffset, au64, so remember to treat it right. π₯vmsβ the VM pool attached to this file. your address spaces, pooled up and ready. β¨groupsβ the scheduling group pool attached to this file. group chat energy, but make it scheduling. πstatsβ cycle and timestamp measures for job execution. she's keeping receipts on how long the jobs took, ngl. β±οΈ

go give these besties some love too, they're all in the same friend group:

and that's the whole page, bestie β you understood it, you slayed it, periodt. πβ¨
little sign-off moment: this one came from./drivers/gpu/drm/panthor, dated October 2026, and she answers tostruct panthor_file(9). mwah. ππΈ
