ttm_prime_dmabuf_release(9)

💖 NAME 💖

Okay bestie, this is the ttm_prime_dmabuf_release(9) page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's literally the release method for the dma-bufs we export. Very niche, very kernel, no cap. ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void ttm_prime_dmabuf_release (struct dma_buf *dma_buf );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• dma_buf — that's the whole argument list, bestie. The original page doesn't give it a separate little description, and we're not out here inventing lore. 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

The way this function moves is lowkey a three-step routine, and it's giving tidy cleanup energy:

1. First, it calls the dma_buf release method that the driver provides.
2. Then it cleans up our dma_buf pointer used for lookup.
3. Finally, it releases the reference the dma_buf has on our base object.

That's it. That's the whole glow-up. 🌈
