vcn_v2_5_dec_ring_set_wptr(9)
π vcn_v2_5_dec_ring_set_wptr(9) β from the Kernel API Manual, bestie β¨
okay so picture this: it's a kernel API manual page, the function is vcn_v2_5_dec_ring_set_wptr, and it lives in section 9 (iykyk β that's the kernel interface section, we love a section 9 moment π). This is the whole entire page, no skips, no cuts.
β¨ NAME β¨
vcn_v2_5_dec_ring_set_wptr β literally just sets the write pointer π«Ά
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
void vcn_v2_5_dec_ring_set_wptr (struct amdgpu_ring *ring );
It returns nothing (void, the strong silent type π) and it takes exactly one argument. That's it. That's the whole signature. Slay.
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
ringβ anamdgpu_ringpointer. Yes bestie, that's the whole description. It's a pointer, it points at anamdgpu_ring, and it's the thing you're passing in. Nothing more in the source, so nothing more from me. π
π DESCRIPTION π
Commits the write pointer to the hardware. That's the vibe check and it passed. β¨
π₯ SEE ALSO π₯
Kernel file: ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/vcn_v2_5.c β go read it, it's giving source of truth π

Like, look at that list β the decoder ring's whole friend group, plus the encoder rings crashing the party. Full main character energy from top to bottom. π
ngl the entire description is one single sentence and I respect the confidence π
and that's the page!! mwah π β sourced from ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu, dated October 2026, filed under vcn_v2_5_dec_ring_set_wptr(9), and yes the footer says the exact same title as the top because that's how manpages do. periodt. ππ§π
