Like, that's it. That's the whole vibe. It gets the read pointer. Iconic behavior, no notes. π
π¦ SYNOPSIS
uint64_t vcn_v1_0_dec_ring_get_rptr (struct amdgpu_ring *ring );
So you hand it a ring, and it hands you back a uint64_t. Simple transaction, very demure, very mindful. π
β¨ ARGUMENTS
ringβ anamdgpu_ringpointer. That's the whole shopping list, bestie. One (1) pointer. π«Ά
