vmw_du_crtc_destroy_state(9)

💅 vmw_du_crtc_destroy_state(9) — from the Kernel API Manual, bestie

Okay so picture this: you're deep in the kernel, you're in the Kernel API Manual, and you need to clean up after a crtc state. That's the whole vibe of this page. Let's go 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

vmw_du_crtc_destroy_state — destroy crtc state. That's it. That's the job. She destroys. 💀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void vmw_du_crtc_destroy_state (struct drm_crtc *crtc , struct drm_crtc_state *state );

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• crtc — a DRM crtc. literally just your crtc, the main character of this function 🔥
• state — the state object you're about to destroy. say bye bestie 👋

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So what it does is: it destroys the crtc state for the specified plane — and when I say the state, I mean both the common parts and the vmw-specific parts. All of it. Nothing left behind. iconic cleanup behavior, ngl ✨

Heads up: the page says plane right there, so that's what I'm telling you. No cap, no edits. 🙈
