πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… vdec_msg_queue_dqbuf β€” the "gimme my buffer back" era

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ this one's a tiny little function with main character energy β€” it lives over in the kernel and it does exactly one thing: it takes a lat buffer off the queue list. that's it. that's the whole vibe. πŸŽ€


🌸 NAME 🌸

vdec_msg_queue_dqbuf β€” dequeue lat buffer from queue list. literally what it says on the tin, no plot twist πŸ’–


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

struct vdec_lat_buf * vdec_msg_queue_dqbuf (struct vdec_msg_queue_ctx
*ctx );

so it takes one argument, hands you back a struct vdec_lat_buf *, and yes, that pointer is doing the heavy lifting 🫢


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • ctx β€” the message queue context. that's the whole thing. that's the entire argument list. she's lowkey minimal and we stan πŸŽ€

πŸ’œ RETURN πŸ’œ

returns not null if the dq (dequeue, bestie, keep up 😭) went successfully β€” or, you know, fail. and that's the official story πŸ’€

so real talk: success gives you a non-null struct vdec_lat_buf *, and anything else is the fail case. plan accordingly, king πŸ‘‘
