💅 uvd_v6_0_enc_ring_emit_ib — a Kernel API Manual moment 👑

okay so bestie, welcome to the uvd_v6_0_enc_ring_emit_ib(9) page — yes that's the whole name, yes it's a mouthful, no we're not shortening it, it's iconic like that. this is straight out of the Kernel API Manual and it's lowkey one of the shortest pages ever, so we're gonna get through it together 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

uvd_v6_0_enc_ring_emit_ib — enc execute indirect buffer. that's it, that's the whole vibe 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void uvd_v6_0_enc_ring_emit_ib (struct amdgpu_ring *ring , struct
amdgpu_job *job , struct amdgpu_ib *ib , uint32_t flags );

so it returns void, meaning it gives you literally nothing back — no cap, no return value, it just does the thing and dips 💀 and it takes four args, all listed below ⬇️

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • ring — an amdgpu_ring pointer. the ring, babe. main character energy ✨
  • job — the job we're pulling the vmid from (yes, "retrive" is how the original spells it, we love a typo moment, keeping it fr fr 🙈)
  • ib — the indirect buffer we're about to execute 👑
  • flags — unused. literally unused. it's giving decorative. it's there, it's cute, it does nothing 💅

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Write enc ring commands to execute the indirect buffer. that's the whole description, bestie — short and slay 🌈
