vmw_kms_atom...heck_modeset(9)

🌸 NAME 🌸

okay so bestie, this is vmw_kms_atom...heck_modeset(9) from the Kernel API Manual, and it's all about vmw_kms_atomic_check_modeset — validate state object for modeset changes. lowkey iconic. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int vmw_kms_atomic_check_modeset (struct drm_device *dev , struct
drm_atomic_commit *state );

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• dev — DRM device. literally the DRM device.
• state — the driver state object.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

This is a simple wrapper around drm_atomic_helper_check_modeset for us to assign a value to mode->crtc_clock so that drm_calc_timestamping_constants won't throw an error message. no cap, that's the whole vibe. ✨

🎀 RETURN 🎀

Zero for success or -errno. that's it bestie. 💖
