πŸ’… struct pvr_mmu_context(9) πŸ’…

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β€” this is the page for struct pvr_mmu_context, and it's genuinely not as scary as it sounds, i promise 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

struct pvr_mmu_context β€” the context that holds data for operations at the page catalogue level, and it's intended to be used with a VM context. that's it, that's the vibe πŸŽ€


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct pvr_mmu_context {
    struct pvr_device *pvr_dev;
    struct pvr_page_table_l2 page_table_l2;
};

look at her. two members. immaculate. πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ Members πŸ¦‹

  • pvr_dev β€” the PVR device that belongs to the owning VM context. like, whose device is this anyway? this one πŸ‘‘
  • page_table_l2 β€” the MMU table root. the literal root of the whole table tree, no cap 🌈

like... that's a lot of cross-references and honestly? she ate πŸ”₯


ngl bestie, if you actually read all of those you're built different πŸ’€ but fr fr they're all in the original page, so they had to come along β€” no skipping the "boring" parts around here πŸ“

🧚 Sign-off 🧚

this little gem lives in ./drivers/gpu/drm/imagination, dated October 2026, and the header up top said struct pvr_mmu_context(9) β€” slay, go read the kernel source, ily, bye βœ¨πŸ’–πŸ¦‹
