vmw_cotable_unscrub(9)
π vmw_cotable_unscrub β a kernel API manual, but make it cute
okay so bestie, welcome to vmw_cotable_unscrub(9) from the Kernel API Manual β¨ this one lives in the vmwgfx corner of the kernel and it's basically the "undo" button for a cotable unscrub. no cap, tiny function, very specific job. let's get into it π«Ά
β¨ NAME β¨
vmw_cotable_unscrub β literally just undo a cotable unscrub operation π« that's the whole vibe.
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
int vmw_cotable_unscrub (struct vmw_resource *res );
it returns an int, it takes one arg, that's it, that's the function π
π ARGUMENTS π
resβ pointer to the cotable resource π this is the cotable we're doing the thing to, she's the main character here.
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
so what does she do. vmw_cotable_unscrub issues commands to (re)bind the cotable to its backing mob, and that mob lowkey needs to be validated and reserved at this point β like yes bestie, get your paperwork in order first πβ¨
and here's the tea: this is identical to bind except the function interface looks different π same energy, different signature. don't let the name fool you, they're giving the same thing with a whole new outfit π
