STRUCT XE_VAL_FLAGS(9)

💖 NAME 💖

struct xe_val_flags — the little flag bucket you hand over to xe_validation_ctx_init(), bestie. That's literally its whole job 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

struct xe_val_flags {
    u32 exclusive :1;
    u32 no_block :1;
    u32 interruptible :1;
    u32 exec_ignore_duplicates :1;
 };

okay so it's four single-bit fields, all crammed into a u32, all bitfield-y and demure 🎀 no cap, that's the whole struct.

🎀 MEMBERS 🎀

• exclusive — you're kicking off the validation transaction by locking out every other validator. main character energy fr fr, nobody else gets in while you're on the dance floor 👑
• no_block — don't you dare block on initialization. we're in, we're out, no waiting around 🙈
• interruptible — block interruptibly if you're blocking at all. heads up though: this implies initializing the drm_exec context with the DRM_EXEC_INTERRUPTIBLE_WAIT flag ✨
• exec_ignore_duplicates — initializes the drm_exec context with the DRM_EXEC_IGNORE_DUPLICATES flag. it's giving "seen it, don't care, move on" 💀
