vmw_surface_destroy_ioctl(9)

okay so bestie, welcome to the manual for vmw_surface_destroy_ioctl(9) — it’s giving “kernel API but make it cute” 🎀✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

vmw_surface_destroy_ioctl — the ioctl function that implements the user surface destroy functionality. periodt 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int vmw_surface_destroy_ioctl (struct drm_device *dev , void *data ,
       struct drm_file *file_priv );

💅 ARGUMENTS 💅

• dev — a pointer to a struct drm_device. the device situation, fr fr 💜
• data — a pointer to data copied from / to user-space. yes, that slash is doing its thing 🫶
• file_priv — a pointer to a drm file private structure. private file energy 👑
