uvd_v4_2_mc_resume(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… uvd_v4_2_mc_resume(9) β€” like, the kernel API manual bestie πŸŽ€

okay so picture this: it's a whole manpage from the Kernel API Manual, and the star of the show is uvd_v4_2_mc_resume. she's a function. she's iconic. let's get into it ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

uvd_v4_2_mc_resume β€” memory controller programming, no cap πŸ’–

like literally, that's her whole job description: programming the memory controller. main character energy fr.


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

void uvd_v4_2_mc_resume (struct amdgpu_device *adev );

that's it. that's the whole signature. returns void (so, nothing β€” she gives nothing back, she just does πŸ’…), and she takes exactly one argument. slay.


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • adev β€” an amdgpu_device pointer. that's it, that's the whole vibe. one pointer, one purpose 🫢

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so what does she actually do? the manpage says, and i quote in spirit: she lets the UVD memory controller know it's offsets. that's the whole thing. she goes in, she tells the UVD memory controller where its offsets are at, and she's out. lowkey the most useful little errand-runner in the whole amdgpu friend group πŸ˜­πŸ‘‘

no drama, no extra params, no return value to stress about. just void, one adev, and a memory controller that finally knows its own offsets. periodt.
