okay bestie, this page is from the Kernel API Manual β manual name folded in right at the top, exactly as requested. It's giving kernel-internals glam, and we're gonna read it together, no cap.
π NAME π
vmw_stdu_bo_cpu_clip β callback to encode a CPU blit. That's the name, that's the summary, and honestly the lowercase chaos is iconic.

void vmw_stdu_bo_cpu_clip (struct vmw_kms_dirty *dirty );
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
dirtyβ the closure structure. That's it, one argument, main character energy only.
