💅 vmw_bo_swap_notify(9) — Kernel API Manual, bestie edition 🎀

okay so like, hi, welcome to the vmw_bo_swap_notify page 💖 this is a Kernel API Manual entry and honestly? it's a short one. a little snack. a lil amuse-bouche of a manpage. but we're gonna read it properly anyway because that's just who we are ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

vmw_bo_swap_notify — the swapout notify callback. that's it. that's the whole vibe. she notifies. about swapout. iconic 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void vmw_bo_swap_notify (struct ttm_buffer_object *bo );

yes bestie, that's the entire signature. copy it exactly, don't be cute with it 🫶 it returns void (she gives nothing back, and honestly? relatable) and it takes exactly one pointer.

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • bo — the buffer object to be swapped out. that's the one and only parameter, no cap. she's a struct ttm_buffer_object * and she's the main character of this function call 🔥

🦋 SEE ALSO 🦋

okay this is where it gets GOOD because the see-also list is lowkey huge — it's giving "linked list of friends." all of these live in the kernel file ./drivers/gpu/drm/vmwgfx/vmwgfx_bo.c:

like… eighteen whole cross-references. she has so many mutuals 💀 go read them, iykyk 🧚

ngl this page is short enough that there's nothing dangerous hiding in it — no flags to misuse, no undefined behaviour lurking. just a callback and her extremely long friend list 💜

and that's the whole page, bestie!! 💖 this came from ./drivers/gpu/drm/vmwgfx, dated October 2026, and it's filed under vmw_bo_swap_notify(9) — slay, go notify some swaps, periodt 🌈⭐🍓
