vmw_binding_...ffset_update(9)

okay bestie, welcome to the vmw_binding_...ffset_update(9) page from the Kernel API Manual ✨ section 9 is serving kernel API realness, and this one is all about giving a cb binding a fresh offset, no cap 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

vmw_binding_cb_offset_update — update the offset of a cb binding 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void vmw_binding_cb_offset_update (struct vmw_ctx_binding_state *cbs ,
u32 shader_slot , u32 slot , u32 offsetInBytes );

it's void, bestie — no return value era, just vibes and a successful update 🫶

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• cbs — pointer to the context binding state tracker 💖
• shader_slot — the shader slot of the binding ✨
• slot — the slot of the binding 🎀
• offsetInBytes — the new offset of the binding 💅

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

Updates the offset of an existing cb binding in the context binding state structure cbs 👑

like, this is the “new offset, same binding” moment — the cb binding is already existing in cbs, and this function updates its offset. iconic behavior, fr fr 🌈
