πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… vmw_piter_page β€” kernel API manual (yes, the Kernel API Manual, bestie) πŸ’…

Okay so real talk, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's a tiny little helper living inside the vmwgfx DRM driver. It's not scary, I promise 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

vmw_piter_page β€” returns a pointer to the current page. That's it. That's the whole vibe. πŸŽ€


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct page * vmw_piter_page (struct vmw_piter *viter );

πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • viter β€” a pointer to the iterator. Like, the iterator you're currently iterating with. Give it here and it does the thing πŸ’–

⭐ RETURN ⭐

It returns the DMA address of the page that viter is pointing at.

πŸ’€ Not me noticing that the NAME section says "pointer to the current page" while RETURN says "DMA address of the page" β€” I'm just telling you exactly what the page says, no edits, no cap. Both lines are staying, fr fr.
