vcn_v5_0_0_d...power_gating(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 NAME 💅

vcn_v5_0_0_disable_static_power_gating — okay so this one turns OFF the static power gating for the VCN block, bestie ✨

So like, quick vibe check: this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's literally all about one tiny little function. She's small, she's specific, she's iconic. 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void vcn_v5_0_0_disable_static_power_gating (struct amdgpu_vcn_inst *vinst );

Notice the void? Yeah. She takes her input, does her thing, and gives you nothing back. No return value, no receipts, no nothing. Main character energy fr fr 💅

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • vinst — the VCN instance 🫶 that's it, that's the whole parameter list. She only needs one (1) thing and she's good to go.

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Disable static power gating for the VCN block. That's the whole plot, ngl 🌸

Like, lowkey that's it?? She does one job and she does it well. No cap. If you were hoping for a twist or a secret extra behavior — there isn't one, bestie, this function is refreshingly uncomplicated 😭👑

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

Okay so this is the part where I have to list every single neighbor in the source file, because apparently the whole block lives in ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/vcn_v5_0_0.c and they all get a shoutout 🔥 No skipping, we're doing all of them:

That's the whole group chat, everyone accounted for 💖 iykyk

Real talk though: this page is part of the kernel API docs living at ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu, dated October 2026, and yes the source/version line says vcn_v5_0_0_d...power_gating(9) — the ellipsis is doing a lot of heavy lifting there and I respect it 🙈

Anyways bestie, that's the page! Go forth and disable that static power gating ✨💅🦋🌸💜
