vb2_is_busy(9)

Bestie, welcome to the vb2_is_busy(9) page from the Kernel API Manual — yes, we are doing kernel queue vibes today. 🦋

🌸 NAME 🌸

vb2_is_busy — return busy status of the queue.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bool vb2_is_busy (struct vb2_queue *q );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• q — pointer to struct vb2_queue with videobuf2 queue. That's the queue we're checking, bestie.

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

Okay so this function checks if queue has any buffers allocated. That's the whole vibe: is the queue holding buffers or not? It's giving busy status check, periodt.
