πŸŽ€ NAME πŸŽ€

Okay bestie, this is the Kernel API Manual page for vcn_v5_0_2_early_init(9) β€” the little early-life setup moment where this hw instance gets its function pointers sorted and its microcode loaded. πŸ’–

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int vcn_v5_0_2_early_init (struct amdgpu_ip_block *ip_block );

Yes, it hands back an int. Keep that in your pocket. 🫢

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • ip_block β€” a pointer to the amdgpu_ip_block for this hw instance. That's the whole argument situation, no cap. πŸ¦‹

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

So here's the vibe: vcn_v5_0_2_early_init does the early setup things. ✨

  • It sets the ring and irq function pointers.
  • It loads microcode from the filesystem.

That's it, that's the energy. Straightforward, iconic, early-init behavior. πŸ’…
