πŸ’… vangogh_set_...ff_residency(9) πŸ’…

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β€” yes, that's the manual name, and yes, we're doing this. this is the page for vangogh_set_gfxoff_residency, and it's gonna be quick but it's gonna be cute. πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

vangogh_set_gfxoff_residency β€” and honestly? that's the whole name. the original page leaves the description blank, so we're not gonna invent one. no cap, we're keeping it exactly that mysterious. πŸ¦‹


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

u32 vangogh_set_gfxoff_residency (struct smu_context *smu , bool start );

that's the whole signature, character for character, don't @ me. πŸ‘‘


✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

  • smu β€” amdgpu_device pointer. yeah, it says "amdgpu_device pointer" even though the type is struct smu_context * β€” that's what the page says, so that's what you get. πŸ™ˆ
  • start β€” start/stop residency log. it's a bool, so like... pick one. two options. you got this. πŸ’€

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so the whole vibe here: this function will be used to log gfxoff residency. that's it. that's the function. it logs residency, it's giving "quiet little helper", it's lowkey main character energy for a very specific debug moment. πŸ’–

and hey β€” it returns standard response codes. the page doesn't say which ones, so I'm not gonna make them up. when you see a return value, just know it's one of the standard ones. slay. ✨


✨ SEE ALSO ✨

the kernel file lives here, in all its glory:

./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/pm/swsmu/smu11/vangogh_ppt.c

and these three besties are absolutely worth a look: 🫢

like, get the status, get the residency, get the entrycount. the whole gfxoff friend group. 🌸


ok one tiny PSA: this page as written gives you the vibes but not much else β€” if you're actually poking at gfxoff residency at runtime, go read the source file above instead of trusting vibes alone. 🧚

and that's a wrap, bb! this page comes to you from ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/pm/swsmu... and it's dated October 2026 β€” vangogh_set_...ff_residency(9), still as mysterious as ever. love that for us. πŸ’œβœ¨πŸŒˆ
