vmw_cmd_update_gb_image(9)

💖 NAME 💖

okay bestie, welcome to vmw_cmd_update_gb_image(9) from the Kernel API Manual — this one validates the SVGA_3D_CMD_UPDATE_GB_IMAGE command. that's the whole gig, no cap ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

here's the signature, copied exactly so nobody comes for me:

int vmw_cmd_update_gb_image (struct vmw_private *dev_priv , struct
       vmw_sw_context *sw_context , SVGA3dCmdHeader *header );

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• dev_priv — a pointer to a device private struct. it's the device's own private little corner, iykyk.
• sw_context — the software context being used for this batch. main character energy for this specific batch.
• header — a pointer to the command header in the command stream. it points at the header, periodt.
