vmw_cotable_alloc(9)

✨ vmw_cotable_alloc(9) — the Kernel API Manual moment ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

Okay bestie, this one is vmw_cotable_alloc — it creates a cotable resource. That’s the whole vibe, and it understood the assignment. 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

struct vmw_resource * vmw_cotable_alloc (struct vmw_private *dev_priv ,
struct vmw_resource *ctx , u32 type );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• dev_priv — pointer to a device private struct. Very “private struct, do not perceive” energy, but make it device-private. 🔥
• ctx — pointer to the context resource. And heads up: the cotable resource will not add a refcount. Not me pointing at the no-refcount note like it’s the main character. 😭
• type — the cotable type. Simple, iconic, no notes. 💖
