vmw_surface_dma_size(9)

💖 NAME 💖

okay so this is vmw_surface_dma_size(9) from the Kernel API Manual, bestie — and it's giving “tiny but important kernel helper” energy ✨

vmw_surface_dma_size - Compute fifo size for a dma command. That's the whole NAME moment, no cap 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

uint32_t vmw_surface_dma_size (const struct vmw_surface *srf );

💅 ARGUMENTS 💅

• srf — Pointer to a struct vmw_surface 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So like, vmw_surface_dma_size computes the required size for a surface dma command 🎀 — specifically for backup or restoration of the surface represented by srf. That's the vibe, that's the job, and it ate 💖
