📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💖 vkms_config_destroy(9) 💖

okay so real talk — this is a page from the Kernel API Manual (yes, the kernel has manuals, and yes they're lowkey iconic). grab a strawberry 🍓 and let's get into it, bestie.

✨ NAME ✨

vkms_config_destroy — frees a VKMS configuration. that's it. that's the whole job. it's giving cleanup crew main character energy 🧹💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void vkms_config_destroy (struct vkms_config *config );

returns nothing (void), takes one pointer, no cap. simple. elegant. we love to see it 🫶

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • config — the vkms_config you want to free. hand it over and it gets yeeted into the void 💀✨ literally just the thing being destroyed.
no return value means there's nothing to check afterwards — the call is the whole story, so don't go looking for a status code that doesn't exist 🙈

🎀 SEE ALSO 🎀

okay this is the part where the group chat blows up, because the whole VKMS family shows up 😭👑

first up, the header file and the struct itself:

  • Kernel file ./drivers/gpu/drm/vkms/vkms_config.h and struct vkms_config(9) ⭐

then the struct squad:

  • struct vkms_config_plane(9)
  • struct vkms_config_crtc(9)
  • struct vkms_config_encoder(9)
  • struct vkms_config_connector(9)

the for-each besties (loop girlies, we stan):

the create/destroy/inspect crowd:

planes, planes, planes 🛩️:

crtc behaviour 🌈:

encoders 🔥:

connectors, the final boss 💜:

that's literally all of them, fr fr — nothing skipped, nothing merged, iykyk 😌

and that's the page, bestie!! 🎀 this little gem lives down in ./drivers/gpu/drm/vkms, straight from the October 2026 drop — so go forth and free your configs responsibly. mwah 💋✨🌸
