💅 vcn_v5_0_1_sw_fini 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual entry for vcn_v5_0_1_sw_fini(9) — yes that's the whole name, it's giving "my parents let the Wi-Fi name the baby" energy but we move 💖

vcn_v5_0_1_sw_fini — the sw fini for the VCN block, periodt.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int vcn_v5_0_1_sw_fini (struct amdgpu_ip_block *ip_block );

like. that's it. that's the whole vibe check 🎀

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• ip_block — a pointer to the amdgpu_ip_block for this hw instance. like, the specific one. don't be out here passing some random block, iykyk 🙈

so what does it actually do? bestie. it does VCN suspend and free up sw allocation. that's the teа ☕ — it suspends VCN, then frees up the software allocation. lowkey iconic cleanup behavior, no cap 💅✨
