ttm_resource_manager_usage(9)
π ttm_resource_manager_usage(9) β the Kernel API Manual glow-up β¨
okay so bestie, welcome to the group chat where we talk about ttm_resource_manager_usage, a kernel API manual page from the ttm_resource_manager_usage(9) section π like yes we're literally reading man pages for fun now, that's the era we're in, and honestly? iconic.
πΈ NAME πΈ
ttm_resource_manager_usage β and that's it. That's the whole name section. The original page literally leaves the description blank after the dash, so we're not gonna invent lore, no cap π the function name is the whole vibe here, iykyk.
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
uint64_t ttm_resource_manager_usage (struct ttm_resource_manager *man );
so it takes one arg and hands you back a uint64_t π«Ά that's the whole signature, keep it exactly like that, don't be out here editing it for aesthetics, that's a crime π
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
manβ a memory manager object π that's it, that's the arg. This is the thing you pass in. It's giving "here's the manager, now spill the tea."
π DESCRIPTION π
okay so the whole job of this function is: it returns how many resources are currently used π₯ that's the description, that's the entire description, the original manpage keeps it to one line and honestly? we respect the brevity, she said what she said π
literally just β you hand it the memory manager and it tells you the current resource usage count. periodt. no extra tips, no secret behaviour, don't let anyone tell you otherwise π

and that's the page!! πβ¨ this little cutie lives in ./drivers/gpu/drm/ttm and the version date on it is October 2026 πΈ so like, future-coded but make it documentation. stay hydrated, read your man pages, and remember: the vibe changes, the facts do not, fr fr π«Άπ
