💅 vkms_config_plane_set_type — from the Kernel API Manual, bestie

okay so picture this: you're deep in the kernel API manual, the page is literally called vkms_config_plane_set_type(9), and it does exactly one (1) thing. One job. And it slays at it. Let's get into it 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

vkms_config_plane_set_type — the function that sets the plane type. That's the whole vibe. No cap.

void vkms_config_plane_set_type (struct vkms_config_plane *plane_cfg ,
enum drm_plane_type type );

it's giving "returns nothing, takes two things." iconic honestly 💅

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • plane_cfg — the plane you're setting the type on. like, this is your main character plane. it's a struct vkms_config_plane * 🦋
  • type — the new plane type, as an enum drm_plane_type. the glow-up itself ✨

lowkey the most important part: this page documents vkms_config_plane_set_type and nothing else. don't go assuming extra behavior, bestie — we keep it factual in this house 💀
