okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for vmw_resources_clean(9) — yes, that’s the manual name, and we’re getting into it 💅✨

🎀 NAME 🎀

vmw_resources_clean — cleans resources intersecting a mob range. that’s the whole assignment, and it’s giving exactly what it says on the tin 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int vmw_resources_clean (struct vmw_bo *vbo , pgoff_t start , pgoff_t
       end , pgoff_t *num_prefault );

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

• vbo — the mob buffer object. literally the mob buffer object we’re working with, no cap.
• start — the mob page offset starting the range. where the range starts, bestie.
• end — the mob page offset ending the range. where the range ends.
• num_prefault — returns how many pages, including the first, have been cleaned and are ok to prefault. that’s the return value’s whole job 🫡
